Lincoln Bicentennial Cents

Found several of these in a couple of rolls. It looks as though I see an extra finger but what I see may not count lol!

Looks like it might be an extra finger. I think that there are 100+ different xtra fingers attributed on Wexler.

They’re called Centennial Lincolns. First issued 1909. Bicentennial is 1976.

But I’m not seeing any doubling. Both Wexler and VV have extensive listings for these Centennials, the Birthplace (log cabin) has many, many varieties of the end of the logs doubled, but they are all minor types…imo…Spark

 

Yes many different varieties. Just surprised how many 2009s in a few rolls. Some I did not post lol. Thank you!

And yes I have looked on VV… thanks!

 

You’re right. I forgot about his birth date…Spark

 

If you want a deluxe set of these, the Proof coins are hard to beat. They also not very expensive and are made of sold bronze, not the copper coated zinc stuff.



If you want to spring something less than a couple hundred, the Lincoln Chronicles set is very nice.

 

I don’t have proofs but I was gifted a set. Very nice the proofs are.
