[QUOTE="revenue, post: 518136, member: 17214"][b]Anything Lincoln[/b] I like anything Lincoln. I picked up a Lincoln medal from the Mint last year. And look out at the post office: Today the U.S. Postal Service released four new Lincoln stamps. I picked up a sheet and might buy some for the kids. The stamps are well done and make a great companion to the coins, I think. I'm concered about the Lincoln Comm., though. There's a new artistic preference afoot at the Mint and I'm not crazy about it. I like realism. I like portraits that are executed the way the masters of the 19th and 20th centuries did. Doesn't anyone else find this? And that the portrait on the new coin isn't the best Lincoln can look? I'll probably buy a proof, but I have my reservations. I don't know if collectors in the years to come will like the style of portraiture. Revenue[/QUOTE]
