    I started collecting toned proof Lincolns in 2011 after seeing some examples posted on the boards (esp. by Robec). The coins below are my "Greatest Hits", the best of the best from my collection. All coin photos are resized TrueViews shot by Phil Arnold. I thought I would post a car of each era just to emphasize how much time has passed since these coins were minted.

    Awesome! I like to 57 Lincoln with the 55 Chevy.
    Wish I still had my 66 Mustang though:(

    I bought these from a lot of sources: eBay was a big source, along with Heritage. I also bought some from member on the various forums.
