<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 603957, member: 15199&quot;]Hi all, I attended the nice Heartland Coin Show in El Cajon, CA. yesterday,Sunday 5/31. I didn&#039;t take photos of the show like last time as some said coin shoppers and dealers didn&#039;t like to be photographed ( except our great Long Beach Group <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />). There were 33 tables as best as I could tell. The US gold eagles, buffalos, etc. that there was, went fast. 2009ASE @ 380/tube.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; Highlight for me was meeting Acanthite in person and enjoying looking at some tables together. Wonderful and interesting guy! Maybe he will show some of his nice ones. I bought only Lincolns this time, looking for BU rolls in 40s - 50s, none. Bought some singles and here are 2- 1939S and a 1940S. The 1939S each had die cracks and what appeared to be a clash on the reverse. The 1940S had more apparent die cracks and a planchet defect on the rim. </p><p><img src="http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq279/desertgem/1939S-2-obv.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq279/desertgem/1939S-2-rev.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq279/desertgem/1939Sobv.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq279/desertgem/1939Srev.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq279/desertgem/1939Srev-die.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq279/desertgem/1940Sobv.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq279/desertgem/1940Srev.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq279/desertgem/1940Srev-die.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq279/desertgem/1940Srev-die2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The last item I purchased was a group of Lincolns from 1941-1976. Missing the 1970S sm.date. SOme are spectacular and others are just very very nice. I couldn&#039;t resist the group, chance to update, and I will probably sell the capitol holder down the road. I remembered the threads about how difficult to find nice memorials. It is hard to photo without reflection, but here it is. They are not dark in the last rows, just lighting.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq279/desertgem/licolncollect1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq279/desertgem/lincolncollect2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Lots of fun!</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
