So you like pennies? How ya like THESE pennies!

That's the one! I've got one that is 'shaped' like this horseshoe one you have. I can't get to mine to share a pic and see where it's from, but I seem to recall it has a 1958 cent in mine.

I managed to find mine.

 

That is a well struck 22-D...

 

This is my favorite.


This goes along with what conder posted. The die can leave marks on the rim of the coin.

 

Wow!!! Larry. That's sweet.

 

I agree, the indian head is my favorite so far

 

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I just wanted to mention that if any CoinTalk members are interested in either of the encased uncirculated 1922-D Lincolns I have up on my website, I'll be happy to give you a good deal. I like this forum a lot, and although I have not been active lately like I used to be (fatherly duties, less money = less time, new job, etc.), I still check in from time to time and always enjoy the friendly community here.

At one point I tried paying for advertising on cointalk, but nothing came of it. So I think of any purchase that results in a thread mentioning my coins as free advertising, and I don't mind passing on those savings to fellow members.

So if encased cents are your thing and you want a real special one -- an UNCIRCULATED early branch mint with a good amount of original red left -- please don't be afraid to make me an offer or ask if I can give you a break on one. RLM was right, I am proud of these...maybe too proud and probably have them priced too high as a result. I'm willing to listen if you want one for your collection.

Edit: I just realized this may possibly fall into the category of an offer and not be fit for this thread. If that's the case, please do remove it. I put it here because I would not have mentioned anything on my own, only in response to the coin already being mentioned in the thread. Thanks, Tom

 

I used to have one from a long gone store called Kennedys. I wounder if i still have it somewhere...
