I'm working on putting together a Lincoln cent Proof set, and I got a few new ones today in the mail from one of the proxibid auctions I buy from. I'm having a great time putting this together a few at a time, what I want to do is complete a NGC PF Lincoln cent set 1959 to 2008. Here are the new ones I got today a 2002 S, 2003 S and 2006 S all PF-69. After this I'm going for errors. Sorry I messed up the listing they are NGC can't fix it. Crazy about my Lincolns Bob
Thanks they are in the new NGC holders, the only way they would upload was to enlarge them, so I couldn't get the slabs in the pictures. Bob
Very nice Lincolns. Lincoln make a great collection. Are all your proofs NGC PF69? The three pictured appear to be DCAM are the rest of your set also?
Just curious if your C and G keys are switch or are you really talking about another company call NCG? My first post was polking fun assuming they were actually NGC holders but there are so many slabbing companies it would not surprise me if there was an NCG.
Those are very nice. i like the idea of the PR69 set that is a great way to do it. I have thought about picking coins in different grades or year varieties but didn't know if that was a good idea since I wouldn't have the complete set, you have inspired me to give it a try. Realy nice coins by the way. Kent
Sorry I messed up they are NGC a little quick with the fingers I fixed it. And yes the rest so far are DCAM. Bob
Thanks for pointing it out for me Crustycoins I fixed it, and I know you were just joking around LOL and your right there are so many bad coin grading companys popping up you never know! awhile back I was a little stupid and bought some graded by a company INB PF-70 yea right I knew better and now there out of business or bought up by someone else and changed the name, but I crack them open and put them in a book. Never again! Thanks Bob
Yeah, I made a big mistake and bought a fewin MEGS holders. Half of the quarter eagles in them were counterfeit, the other half were cleaned. I still have two of them as a reimder to reasearch before buying.
I'm doing the same thing. I don't need no fancy PF-70 set (too inconsistent and expensive). I've also bought some of the later wheat proofs, which aren't too expensive (depending on the grade of course). I'm also collecting the Washington Quarter Proofs (Eagle Reverse) at the moment. I think it's rather underrated and overlooked. But nonetheless, good luck and nice coins! :smile
Great project and coins! You can find some really good deals on slabbed, proof Memorial Lincolns. Good luck!
Thanks all I do really like collecting them. Quarters, that could be something I would go for too. Bob
