At the end of August I made another purchase from the same dealer who surprised me with the 1937 and 1937-D Lincolns. It was the 1937-S, and it...
I should take the 1909 out of the lineup. It was the subject of its very own thread 1909 IHC - help me come up with a grade? a couple years ago....
This 1937-D Lincoln is the second surprise coin from my July order. It also easily surpassed the coin in my set. As you can see, the original was...
I have some IHCs that I think are proofs. I will post the animations and maybe we can figure this out. (Without sending it to a TPG, of course.)...
When I ordered the three coins above, the dealer offered me a discount. I wasn’t sure how to do that on eBay, so I just said not to bother....

I went by the way light varied across the back. The green areas looked like hills and the red looked like valleys. So it looks wavy to me. And...
This is challenging, but I don’t think it is a weak D. Yes, the reverse is wavy. But the O in ONE is fine. All of IGWT looks about the same to...
Since I didn’t really like the 1917-D I got in March 2024, I tried again last December. This time I found one that had the look I like for the...
Still catching up on my newest. Last December I grew dissatisfied with my 1910 cent, shown here (and #4198). I love this coin, but I thought I...

Caching up to June 2024, I finally noticed the damage to my 1964-D cent. The top left of the Lincoln memorial is obliterated. The circular arc...
