[QUOTE="Space 4 Rent, post: 799404, member: 22065"]Just received three in the mail that I bought off eBay this past weekend. I paid a buck a peice for them, but I was really curious to see the new design in hand, and of course to have bragging rights as well :kewl: I am impressed with them, and have already added the best of the three to the album. They do show some rinse spots, like the 2009's. The shield really jumps off the coin, and gives a nice 3-D effect. I think that the proof versions will really pop. I also think that the reverse design works well for such a small coin. Even though many think the stripes on the shield should be burnished like the JFK Half, but I think that it looks good the way it is. After all it is just a cent. Keeping it simple was the correct decision in my opinion. Anyway, I know I can get these at face in a few weeks (maybe), but I have spent a lot more than $3 on a lot less in past. To me it was worth the fee for the early peek.[/QUOTE]
