    I liked the professional life cents. They all turned out better than I thought they would, though.

    For me the four new cent coins all looked better in their proof versions except the frosted devices and features on them seemed to have a lot of little breaks/spots making them a bit inconsistent overall. That is, for me, sloppy to have proofs sent out after having employed modern minting capabilities to produce in quantity rather than quality for the collectors who bought them.

    Not sure what I think of the 2010 Union Shield cent to come this new year, but I bet I will prefer the proof even though I didn't like the initial offering of the shield design unveiled.

    yes, I also liked the proof as well, i have some proof sets and they are really good, thought the mint could have been a little more creative for the design of the new lincoln cents
