<p>[QUOTE="donwall57, post: 2327691, member: 77057"]It look's pretty but a bit nicked up. Forgive me but this is my first post and I came in yesterday, so, "greetings and howdy" to all. I discovered, "was given" an old coin book that was purchased in 1958 called Lincoln Cents by Whitman Publishing. The price for this collecting book was $1.50 from Racine, Wisconsin. It starts from 1909 coins and runs through till 1971. What a gift, indeed. So I've inherited dozens of coins, many of which were no doubt collected along the way. Logic dictates that since the book was put out on the market in 1958, then that would be my first coin to place in the book. . .considering the individual "just" bought the thing when new. This may explain why I have the most pristine and detailed, unfettered coin I have ever seen, this amazing bright reflective Lincoln 1958 double die is stunning! I am so enamored with it that I have dubbed it "The One." I hear there were two known and as of the-day-before yesterday, I heard "the other one" had not surfaced yet. I would challenge anyone to show me a "Finer" specimen of this year and I'd be impressed. I've got double vision!! What do you think of this '58?[ATTACH=full]471481[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]471481[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]471482[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
