<p>[QUOTE=&quot;*coins, post: 3189416, member: 94595&quot;]I picked up some Lincoln cents a few years and they have been sitting every since. I got a good deal for a bunch of folders for $75 and it had almost all coins from 1909-2007 (and separate proofs) and many keys (no S-VDB, 22 NO D, OR 31-S).</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyways, I was looking through it the other day. When I received it, I labeled the &#039;nice&#039; coins with numeric grades. I think some are off now that I look at them now and would like your opinions. So, this is kinda a GTG, but not quite...</p><p>Pics below. These are in nice grades, but all except the 1913 are cleaned. If you want close up or extra pics of a certain coin, let me know. Thanks for your opinions!</p><p><br /></p><p>This is a 1909-VDB cent and it is cleaned. I had it labeled as AU-55.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]822997[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]822998[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Next is a 1909 cent. The story with this one is really weird. I swear it had beautiful blue toning and other colors. I popped it out of the folder and made the mistake of not using gloves to handle it. Yes, I know you should always handle coins on the edges. I do not usually do that when putting coins in folders or taking them out. I will use gloves from now on!</p><p>The beautiful toning disappeared immediately and underneath was cleaning and now there is a giant fingerprint that will not come off! Frustrating. It&#039;s still a nice coin. I had it labeled as XF-50.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]822999[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]823000[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Next is a 1913 cent. This one caught my eye because it is such a nice example of a teen cent from Philly. I had it labeled as AU-55, but I don&#039;t think it is that nice looking at it now.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]823001[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]823003[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]823013[/ATTACH] </p><p>And lastly is a 1931-D cent that is cleaned as well. It&#039;s a nice coin too. I had it labeled as MS-60 and think that was definitely too high.</p><p>(Sorry, the first photo isn&#039;t super clear.)[ATTACH=full]823004[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]823005[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks again![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
