I probably should replace this 1969 proof, but I like the color. But that blob on the reverse looks terminal to me. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
@BadThad, those are some nice 1967's! With 1968 the Mint restarted the Proof program. The minting of proofs was moved to the San Francisco mint,...
1967 marked the third, and final, year where the mint produced only Special Mint Sets in lieu of proofs. The 1965 and 1966 examples I have just...

I was inspired to try an experiment. I have a number of 70s, 80s, and 90s Lincoln proofs that have fingerprints. I envision the prior owner...
I am no longer "lacking only 1904". My small 1900-1909 set is complete. Hmmm, what next... [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

There isn't any exotic rainbow on this one, just an interesting pewter-colored cast with a metallic sheen.[ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I think I got confused. I was watching two coins at auction, this MS63 and a 1904 proof. I started thinking this was the proof so I pushed my bid...
1966 was the second year that there were no proofs, but this is from a Special Mint Set. The planchet has some flaws below the Lincoln Memorial...
I am getting close to completing a short set of IHCs. I have Philadelphia issues from 1900 through 1909, lacking only 1904. This just arrived and...
I thought maybe I could grandfather in your mis-post by bridging it into an Indian Head sequence. Well, I tried. This completes the Philadelphia...
Like this? Just arrived. [ATTACH]
I’m not good at grading, but I like the look. Here’s the Denver version. [ATTACH]
I have been working my way through the post-WWII proofs. I finally took apart the Capitol Plastics holder that houses my 1950 proof set so I could...
I went to the LCS to pick up some cent holders for some newly acquired Indian Head cents (such as the one in post #1824). In change, Scott gave me...
1965 did not have any proof coins. The Special Mint Set coins didn’t use the special polished planchets of proof strikes. This photo shows a...
The top image of the 1906 is a still photo. Since the colors in a .gif animation have to be reduced into just 256 colors I usually try to post a...
$31. This little purple gem came in the same mailer as the 1901 I posted above. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
$27. In hand, this is a very lustrous cent. [ATTACH]
