Good looking Lincoln.

 

You guys are killin me today. Think im gonna go check out ebay

 

That's the truth....but I go check out Heritage or Legend instead of eBay.

 

I only go to Legend when I feel like drooling

 

They do have some budget busting stuff if you're on a small budget but they have some nice stuff that will do well with even a small budget.

 

I'm baaack....

I thought I'd try an experiment, but it has taken me a few days to set it up. First, I set up a video studio, shown here.



Yes, that's an iPhone sitting on a toilet paper tube as a makeshift tripod.
Then, I took a video of the coin. People could not see luster in the still photos. The stills have a ton of detail but no movement.

This is what I saw through the phone.


I uploaded my iPhone videos to my laptop, got a video editor, and cropped them down. Then I saved as a YouTube video.

So, is this a useful approach when the still photos don't give us all the information we need?

 

I give you and A for ingenuity in setting up the phone using a TP tube but your coin gets an F for luster. Even though you can see a hint of luster that would be considered no luster due to cleaning and would receive the 'cleaned' attribute on a good slab.

 

Nice!

 

Nice 09 S VDB

 

Very nice 09 VDB's

 

This is the pinnacle of my Lincoln set....

 

Notice the spelling of Liberty.

 

BIE cent it's called. Die filled Liberty not rare.
