<p>[QUOTE="whopper64, post: 8134247, member: 101364"]IHC's are a little more interesting, although getting harder and harder to find for a decent price. Quite a few varieties still available and since they are older, a little more historical than Lincolns. I do agree that the Zincolns are for the most part an abomination of Lincoln cents. When 2009 rolled around I was hoping that (for collectors only) the U.S. Mint would keep producing the bronze cents, charging a small premium just so that they could keep producing the Zincolns for circulation with a smaller deficit for overall production. Win-Win for collectors and the Mint. $10 for p&d enhanced uncirculated (including p mintmark), $15 for w enhanced uncirculated, and $20 for s proofs. Say there are one million Lincoln cent collectors just in the U.S. that would bring in some nice change for the Mint every year. This would also set the stage for continuing the bronze Lincolns if the Mint decided to do away with circulating cents. Just daydreaming though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
