Which coin has eluded you to keep you from finishing a collection?

You bet! Yes, it is much more satisfying to find them on your own! I do believe you will find one as they are not uncommon. However, the offer stands if you don’t. I went forever trying to fill the last hole in my Presidential Dollar P&D Dansco - a Denver Nixon. I finally made a trade with @Cheech9712 who sent me a very nice Unc Nixon. Many months later I found one in circulation, but it’s not anywhere near the condition of the one she sent me.

Have been searching far and wide for years for the 1915-S MS65 Red. If TexAg has a spare one, I'll consider myself the luckiest man on the face of this earth.

 

WGSL, I got a good chuckle after I read your post, looked at my one and only 1915-S that’s in my Dansco album (a VG8), looked up the mintage (4,833,000), and looked on the internet for a MS65RD (couldn’t find one), lol!

 

Indeed, TexAg. I think It's probably the most difficult Lincoln to find in that kind of primo condition. Years ago I had a shot at one via auction, but fell asleep watching an old rerun of "Fantasy Island". I ALWAYS wait until the final seconds to put my bid in and that was my undoing on this unfortunate occasion. Seriously, I remember the exact moment waking up to the sound of Tattoo saying "da plane....da plane" and then thinking "da darn auction.....da darn auction". And it was too late to pull the trigger. The winning bid went for about $400 more than I thought it would, but those rascals don't come down the pike very often, so I was pretty peeved.

 

You broke the jinx, Tex. I found the 1979 D. Thank you very much.

 

Good show!
