<p>[QUOTE="eddiesworld65, post: 901718, member: 24224"]I looked the coin over again, fat/flat rims compaired to a regular teens unc penny, and the beard detail is alot more detailed on my matte than the regular. I showed it to a old (in his 70's) dealer who had seen them years ago and gave it a thumbs up! He was shocked at the prices, he said in the 60's and 70's you couldn't give them away, had a few nice ones for $30-40 and they sat for years! He saved alot of low mintage (key) lincolns and indians but not the mattes, didn't think they would ever do anything! Wish he would have, my collection would be that much better!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
