You could get them in change and they were cheap.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Lincoln influenced me as a child although I don&#039;t actively collect them now. I still have old 2x2s with nice red 1971 Lincolns that I pulled from circulaton as a child and graded as XF as they couldn&#039;t be uncirculated because I got them in change. I was 9 at the time.</p><p>I still have those coins and the writing of a 9 year old clembo is on the 2x2s.</p><p><br /></p><p>Not cost effective? Fine make them out of aluminum and while you&#039;re at it change the design. I&#039;d love to see an aluminum Flying Eagle dated 2010. Wonder what it would look like in proof?</p><p><br /></p><p>Call me an old softy but even though I don&#039;t collect them I have every wheatie except the 09SVDB, 22, and 55DDO.</p><p>They&#039;re good for the hobby if nothing else.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
