    thanks so much

    I finally got around to searching for the mintage figures, the 1933 surprised me, < 15,000,000 (much less than the 1909 "VDB") *if indeed these figures are true* So the 1933 is a "semi-key" no?

    Yes, the 1933 is a tough Date. By far the best one you found. I was surprised to read that you pulled a 33 from roll searching. Congrats. By the way, Id like to see a picture of that one.

    it is surprising that a wheat back with such a low production could be found, anything is possible i guess

    I'd like to seem more photo's of the 74. I'm wondering if it is a proof.

    it is the sharpness of Lincolns hair and beard which makes me think it is a proof

    The D mintmark makes me think it's deffinately not a proof, unless they made some I'm not aware of in Denver that year.
