<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cremebrule, post: 1886254, member: 35227&quot;]A lot of great entries in the contest so far! I really like furryfrog&#039;s cherrypicking story (amazing find!).</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s my entry -- this is the coin that started it all! My mom helped me buy it as a kid at the local coin store, which marked the cornerstone of my newfound collection. It&#039;s quite a fitting coin to be as such; it is a Lincoln Wheat Cent and a toner, both of which have been and continue to be my two favorite fields of collecting. The picture below was taken by Robec, who has an amazing way with cameras and coins. It has some smooth red-brown color on the obverse and a unique moss-green patina on the reverse...while certainly not the most expensive coin in my collection, it is one of the most unique and sentimental among all my pieces. While I&#039;d like to keep it raw, it&#039;s turned a bit since Robec photographed it (obverse a bit more brown, the reverse a bit more iridescent), so I wouldn&#039;t mind seeing it slabbed either.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://robecsimages.com/photos/cremebrule/cremebrule_1909VDB_MS1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>And, of course, a big thanks to jester3681 for hosting this contest![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
