How about a 1955-S BIE

Love the BIE, rmpsrmps. But isn't 1955 tomorrow?
Lance.

 

How did you get that one? There are only 11 of them!!

 

I am glad I was not the only one thinking like that!

 

Today is for the 1955 .... we are on the 2nd day of the 1954's

 

That's right. The first 1954 was posted almost 36 hours ago.

 

Yes, but ....
The 1945's were posted on 9/5, 1949's were posted on 9/9, 1950's were posted on 9/10, 1951's on 9/11, .... I will let you do the math.

 

rlm, you are correct on the population of my '54. That coin is also pictured in the NGC Coin Encyclopedia.
As I mentioned when we posted 1946; the '54 was one of the very hardest to find of all the later wheats.

If my memory is correct there are only 3 in PCGS holders!

 

Lance you have some amazing Lincolns and such fine photo's. I am just curious about the 1909-S VDB. Are the surface lines on the obv coat an indication that this coin has been cleaned in the past ?

 

OK, I think we are still on 1954, so here is one

 

Your memory is correct at least according to Heritage. However, Heritage also says NGC has 20 of them, but NGC only acknowledges 11.

 

1955

One of my favorite coins with tons of character. Awesome luster, interesting die cracks and chips....the chip in the 9 looks like an eye ball. Don't know where the reverse photo is, these are really old pics.
