    To celebrate the Lincoln Bicentennial and the 100th anniversary of the memorial cent I'm making a Lincoln type set with all the US coins/medals featuring him.

    What are all the coins and medals on which he's been represented?

    I have a list myself but I'm starting with a clean slate on this thread as to not cloud everones view so I don't miss anything.

    I know I'll have to reserve a 26.5mm diameter port in the display which will remain unfilled till mid 2010 for the Lincoln Golden Dollar... :(

    Thanks everyone for your input in advance....

    The problem comes when you added in the part about the medals. The coins aren't too bad but the medals could probably run into the hundreds of pieces

    When you say "all US medals", do you mean "all Lincoln medals issued by the US" (a few), or all Lincoln medals issued in the US" (untold hundreds)?

    The website for the Mint only lists medals currently for sale (2), although there was at least one other Lincoln medal produced there.

    When I checked a few minutes ago there were more than 50 medal offerings on ebay with Lincoln motifs.
