<p>[QUOTE="gijoe76, post: 1965594, member: 40020"]A couple of new Lincoln's for the collection. First up is a NGC PFRDUC 1980 S Lincoln Memorial that I was able to pick up for $4. Not a bad deal at all on that one. The second is a NGC MS67RD 1949 S "CAC" Lincoln Wheat Ear cent. The seller originally was asking over $400 for this coin when I first saw it listed. Numismedia list this coin for $210. Most examples that I have seen sell recently have been in the $100 range but they have all been dull or just lack what I believed too be a strong strike. The 2 best examples that I have seen listed on Ebay without CAC sticker were listed for $269 and $369. The one for $369 had an exceptional strike but I was not willing to pay that much without knowing if it would pass CAC standards. So today with the one that had already been CAC certified they had dropped the price down to $311. A little back and forth and I got it for $245. $35 over list with the green bean I am happy.
