Also you have influenced me toward liking toners of which most of my new purchases have been such. See "Post some Lincolns" for my 31 S and the 57 D.
Paul- I love all your posts. More info than I can process. I have to really focus and lower my ADD to read your in depth analysis. Me thinks...
Great coin. VF 35-EF 40. If sent to graders might get a bump up to AU due to nice eye appeal. The fields are very nice.
I can see the wear the more I stare at the 1916. I was in denial. Two Lincoln experts say AU, well it's AU. I keep in my raw collection. Yes I...
I agree with Frank and bhp. Not worth it and second pic for sure cleaned and retoned. Circulated coins. Any coins kept in a bucket will not be...
Houston- you bought all those?? for only $175? Wow. What are the dates of the early rolls? Thanks Harry!
I am stoked for you but I don't really understand your story. We were "shorted"? Assume you work at a bank and Loomis is the Guard/money...
Charmy's original advice was the best. Never clean your coins???? There is conservation and harsh chemical cleaning such as Vinegar or baking...
Everyone wanders how the people in power can make such ludicrious financial decisions which both cause and perpetuate this problem. California...
Oh vey is miur!!

RLM- I don't think they will consider this to be wear. Hopefully, this clears it up.
I know this has some small carbon spots (2 of them), but I still think it's a great coin. The polish lines are crazy on the reverse. When I...
Here's another- what would it grade anyone?. I think it's a 64 RB, myself. Thanks Harry for the update. I assume in your Whitman albums you...
MS 63/64. Looks nice.
EF 40 with weak strike. Nice brown toning.
I was too lazy to post my response in such detail like Charmy. I second everything she said. Only thing I would rinse with fresh mineral oil...
I don't collect paper money, but this is beautiful stuff.
Super cool. Maybe take clearer pics so we can see more closely. I wish I had one of those!
I was looking again at your collection. Amazing.
