[QUOTE="Spark1951, post: 25668787, member: 90692"]All 3 are spenders unless you keep them for positions in a type set. The ‘83 [I]looks like [/I]a Zincoln, but you will never know until you weigh it. The ‘79 reverse is Red but the obverse is brown and has blotches above and below LIBERTY. The ‘73 is damaged. The deep circular gouge across the forehead was more than likely made by a coin wrapper device. Most collectors give a pass on these. But, hey…you save/collect what [I]you[/I] like and to Hades what anyone else thinks. It’s [I]your [/I]collection. The point that a coin becomes desirable depends on your criteria.
