<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BooksB4Coins, post: 2390999, member: 36230&quot;]I agree that it&#039;s not a great rendition, but you do know where it came from, right? We&#039;re not going to get the actual original design back, and while I still think it could be improved on, it&#039;s a heck of a lot better than, say, the 2009&#039;s. Not so dear or honest ole Abe had become a laughable cartoon, even more than in real life, and was an insult to Brenner.</p><p><br /></p><p>The OP question, as asked, is a little more complicated than pre/post 1947, which is an odd choice anyway. The obverse design alone has visibility changed many times over the years, so unless we want to break everything down, perhaps it would be easiest to simply identify by reverse variety. Even though not a personal fan of the series, I would choose wheat backs, and mostly because they include the obverse design used in the early years, which is far more eye-pleasing and superior to anything that came later imo.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
