It looks like a well struck coin to me. There was probably some grease or other material in the VDB when it was struck. Not all that unusual...
Nice coins!!!! BTW, you will get better pix if you take them out of the 2X2's.
Most likely grease got in the die. Not all that rare and not recognized as anything special.
These are the best I can do with the pix. The coloring is a little more subdued and a little more varied. i.e. the coat has some violet...
Maybe I am missing something, but that is a 40/45 to me.
They were made in 1942. They were made in 1950. They were not made "between 1942 and 1950". What am I missing here?
If you are implying that the OP's coins was made from proof dies, no proofs were made between 1942 and 1950. 2000 proofs made? 1942 had 25,000...
I know nest to nothing about these coins, but those look like some nice ones. However, I hope Jack treated you to some Verdi-Gone. I see a...
I wish it were that simple. I have been seriously buying Lincolns for 10 years and have seen the prices go up dramatically and never crashed....

Those pix are too small to make anything out. It just looks like a scratch to me.
I guess I got in at the right time. I had no problems ordering on line shortly after noon (Eastern time).
Go to a different post office/clerk. FYI, they will insure them, but will not pay if you do not use ample insulation/packing.
Welcome to the forum. I will assume that you are talking about NNC and NGS. If you find a nice coin in one of their slabs, go ahead and buy it,...
Does anyone see anything wrong with this coin? I got it from Heritage for a lot less than I figured it would go for. BTW, they're pix.
Your pix are a little small to tell for sure, but the 09 looks to be at least a 66 and the 24 is a G6/VG8.
First off, by your definition, I believe they are all juiced. "...intentionally altered (juiced) the colors of the image in an attempt to...
That coin is HAMMERED!!
