Luckily, I won this here at CT. Only one I own.

 

I don't have one but here's a Lincoln for the smirk!

 

As many of you may know, these are probably my favorite of all the US coins and I have a near complete variety set that can be seen here..

At this time My favorite of all my LCs was a recent win from VaultBox series X.
So here she is
1857 Large Date

 

FR-2. I didn't hesitate when this popped up on the dealer's website. It has a green bean, a lettered edge and is noted as being Sheldon 11 C

 

Mine, like a lot of Coins in my collection, has a lot of "history"! Both of these are very worn, but if they hadn't been, they would not have fit in my "budget". I wanted one from the 1790's, then I wanted one from 1800. I've several more, random dates from 1803 - 1856. But I don't have pictures of most of them.

 

I used to have a complete dansco album of large cents - all except the 1793 liberty cap and just never could fine one. Anyway all were sold and they are on this forum somewhere. I am now down to 5 only. No picture of the 1850, but it will be replaced. And the worst picture is the highest graded at 64+. All the rest are AU.

 

Is that an error coin? The Fraction, I mean.

 

I don’t really collect them but..
In the LCS junk bin, they leave with me
1839 Booby Head no line under cent variety

 

Junk bins can be great - especially if you get enough details to attribute certain varieties.
