Nice pair of 1909's.

Here is a couple of my favorite Lincolns!! Finally got some ok photos and wanted to share. 09 P V.D.B and 09 P these woodies look just rite beside each other.
First the V.D.B now without the big coin show is this weekend.
These 2 make me wanna sell all my silver and gold and buy more woodies.

I don't know. I don't collect Lincolns, but these don't look like Woodies to me.

IMO I wouldn't consider those as woodies, unless your photos aren't showing it.

 

nice coins, but not woodies..

 

I agree with the above, Nice Coins, but not necessarily Woodies, unless your photos.....

 

Ok guys thanks for the lesson

 

Is that some doubling on the top of LIBERTY on the second coin?

 

There is a striped wood grain pattern on woodies.
From an improperly mixed alloy.
Nice coins though.

 

Interesting ill have to check that out after work

 

Try some threads here on woodies in the search box.
There are some excellent photos here as well as text.

 

Looks like very fine grain on both these coins to me. I guess if your looking for tiger stripes then these dont fit the bill. What else would cause this grain effect other than improper alloy mix?

 

I quoted wrong post. Interesting ill have to check that out after work!!!!

 

No matter what both are nice coins. I personally like the darker brown with hints of red like the second 1909.

 

A Woodie? Do you mean like this?

 

There's a new post "1920 Wheat Cent Off Center"... that's a woodie.
