<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bhp3rd, post: 832947, member: 16510&quot;]I&#039;m not even going there - whether they are &quot;better&quot; or not is not the issue at all.&nbsp; What I said (I think) was I could tell the difference by that particular sheen on mint set coins in Lincoln&#039;s, and I know that I can.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Heck many times even my more knowledgeble customers around here will be looking for say a 1986-D cause it&#039;s a little harder and more expensive to find in nice BU and will see the coins I have and even say &quot;no, I don&#039;t want a mint set coin, just a regular one&quot;.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><b>In fact I would lay down $200 dollar bet and let anyone hand me 10 coins and I promise you that I would only miss at most only one 1 coin as to whether it&#039;s a mint set Lincoln or not and do it in 3 minutes!</b></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>You&#039;all don&#039;t even know how many Lincoln Cents I&#039;ve looked at - if you think for a second I don&#039;t know the difference you&#039;ll just have to be wrong about that.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some are nicer some are not&nbsp; - I&#039;ve said on here many times that I like BU coins without the satin finish better cause they are struck better to me.</p><p>Some mint set Lincoln&#039;s are nice many are dogs but they all have that sheen after about 1970.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Have you tried what I suggested yet??&nbsp; I wish you would.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
