103 Days of Lincoln Cents

I completely understand that. One of the reasons I'm not a huge slabbed coin collector, it tends to monetize coins too much and then collectors like you can't get what's needed.

Farewell to the "classic" era.

One last toner for the road.
Thanks for all the "likes" guys, you ALL have some VERY nice Lincoln Cents as well and I enjoy looking at them. I'm happy to share this passion with you.
I'll just be lurking some from here on out, Matt

 

Thanks for participating Matt, you have some beautiful pieces. I'm glad I was able to start a thread like this, up to this point it has been a monumental success.

 

Thad, I took your suggestion (even a 68 year old can learn new tricks) and the '32 and '33 are my first attempts.
I bought my lamp at Costco not Walmart.

 

This is what I use and a close-up of the lamp:

Nice toner....very tough to capture.

 

Mo....

 

Toner with booming luster.

 

A day late and a dollar short ...

 

WingedLiberty, That '32 is flat gorgeous! Maybve the finest toned '32 I've ever seen!

 

Thanks RiverGuy ... ebay pickup for $119 ... it was already PCGS slabbed MS64RB ... hefty toning premium on that, but i liked it! The colors and toning pattern reminded me of some Matte Proof Lincolns I've seen (esp that overwash of translucent blue).

 

Definately "beginners" photographs - both are 67R

 

Looks like you need to calibrate your white balance.

 

One of the best years for toners IMO.
