I'm not even sure if that's the proper name for a cent collection I wish to put together. My plans is to build a Lincoln Cent collection with all first year design changes, such as 1909vdb, 1909 no vdb, 1916 noticeable sharpening of the dies,1918 w/ vdb, etc....Basically, if there is a noticeable difference in design (large or small), I would like to assemble a set. On business strike changes, I'm pretty much aware of all the changes, but when
it comes to proof changes, I'm a bit lost.

What year did the mint officially start strike proofs with deep cameo surfaces? Was it 1978? I see proof cents with a transition to from polished to cameo in the late 70s but when was it not the exception anymore, but standard practice?
Thanks

sure why not

 

I may be wrong here, but the story I've heard wasn't that the Mint suddenly decided in the 1970s that all proof coins would be cameo; rather that they changed the minting process and the effect was that cameo proofs became the norm. I'd love to hear from someone who knows better.

 

A very nice project. You could also include all of the changes as you suggested a bit of, to the general overall sharpening of the hair, etc. Quite a task considering how many times this has occurred. Let us know as you progress.

 

I began putting a list together, and off the top of my head there are 37 coins listed so far. Not including all the bowties, beards, lower bust relief and the memorial RDV changes. Some coins will have two or more changes, which will eliminate a few coins. When I get this list together, I'll post it on this thread. Maybe I'll miss something and someone could help me with it.

 

There are some cameo proofs for all issues starting in 36, but for the most part, cameos became the norm when the San franscisco mint took over. You won't see too many non cameos after the switch.

The memorial reverse didn't change too much other than depth to my eyes, but there may be some other variations that I don't recall off the top of my head.

Cool project though, keep us updated.

 

You might want to read up on 1915. There were a lot of things going on with the dies during that year. But I cannot help you with the proofs.

 

I'm not sure if it is a design change but they switched metals in 1982. They also had the four 2009 Lincoln cent designs, and the switch to the Union Shield in 2010. And who can forget the 1943 steel cents.

 

I know Abe's beard changed a lot. It lost all definition in the early memorials, when to some roughness, lost its depth, to spaghetti, etc

 

Variety Vista is a good place to start.

Yes sir, that is were I came up with the idea to start this collection

 

Wasn't sure if you were aware of the scope of your undertaking. It'll be an interesting collection. Good luck!

 

I like your idea for a set!

There was a design change between 1968 and 1969. 1969 started the "cartoony" look -- with a narrower bust. Also the peak (pointy part) of Lincolns hair was to the left of the W in 1968 ... and exactly below the W in 1969.

 

What I heard about old cameo proofs, is that they were made when the dies were still fresh, and became ordinary as the dies wore down.
Now, with better techniques, all proofs are cameo, if that is the intent, or polished, or reversed.
This phenomenon is probably what gave rise to paying a premium for "First Strike" issues from the mint, although there is no real difference now.

 

Spent the whole day working on this list and now I can't attach it from my phone. So I will do it tomorrow morning. But I have to say, some of you might be shocked. If you were to assemble a design change /type set of Lincoln's, including all planchet types and proofs, I've come up with 97 coins. Most of it was researched thanks to Vista Variety and I can't thank them enough, because if I had to put this list together alone, I don't think I could ever have done it. I still have a few questions that need answering, and maybe I forgot something, but when I post it tomorrow, please feel free to add to it or give your opinion on it.

 

Here is the list I gathered yesterday. I checked it and I believe all information is correct. Im on the fence about adding the 1911 Denver cent, because Im not sure if that could be considered a design change or not. But I did add the 1968-s Proof because it was the first year San Fran started producing proof. What is your thoughts? Thanks

I couldnt find written information of when the mint started prepping dies for cameo proofs. I searched images of proofs of the late 70's, and from what I found, it looks like 1979 would be the first year issued. I found a lot of 1978 cameos but alot more images of "borderline" cameos, compared to 1979, which seems all images I found have a good frosted contrast.

 

The biggest shock to me was 1971. Apparently, there were 2 obverse dies and 2 reverse dies for that year. And by the RDV#'s, it looks like the 2nd one was discovered recently, because the most current memorial is a RDV-007, and the 2nd 1971 reverse is RDV-008. With that said, there are 8 varieties (4 business strikes, 4 proofs)

 

I cant believe I forgot to list the business strike 1970-S small date, which I corrected, so now the total so far is 98 coins.

 

Were't there several years with WAM (wide AM) or is that covered with your CAM's (close AM's)?

I see you did cover the satin finish cents with your selections for 2009 bronze. But then, there is the 2010 satin finish shield cent.
