You mean you finally reached the end? I was waiting to see the 2017's...:watching: It has been a treat to see so many Lincolns.
Thanks for the great information. It all helps to gain better understanding of what I am seeing. (And now I located the reverse scratch, too.) I...
Thanks, I can see that now, and a little darkening on the peak on the cheekbone. To summarize: So if the coin had ever circulated, there would...
Can there be a coin that has no evidence of wear on one side but does on the other? If the reverse is MS, then the obverse must be too. As a...

I believed this was the reason for 3 steps with the acetone. The first soak will dissolve organic crud, so the coin will be bathing in a soup of...
Back in time a bit, to my raw and ungraded 1910. The third picture has the best approximation of the wine-colored luster and the blue toning above...
I'm a bit leery of the brush. If the supersoft brush picks up some grit, it could still make scratches. But I am also just learning. What will you...
I dread to see what they design when they exit.:(

Who would even make a punch that was a reverse 4? Where would you buy such a thing? If the numeral on the punch has just the right shape you could...
