Message:: [QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 117053, member: 4552"]No, no, no. That guy actually works for the Mint and put 1,000,000 of them in his socks and left with them. He still has them but can't get rid of them because of the smell. If you want he'll sell you the socks and throw in the 31S Cents free. There are so many stories in the coin world and no one knows which ones are for real. Mine is.    As to the 09S VDB. No the prices haven't sky rocketed at coin shows in normal everyday grades but that stupid 55DD has doubled in price in the last year. The 14D and the 22 Plain are also getting way up there past where they should be. Oddly enough the 72DD although almost as famous is keeping stable price wise at all the shows I've been to lately. Just last Month that 72DD in MS63 Red was still at the $400 to $500 hundred mark where it was almost a year ago. What is really odd is the 95DD which you can barely tell is a DD is climbing up into the $40 to $60 dollar range.   Since I have 10 complete sets of Lincoln Cents I am just trying to improve set 1 as much as possible so I hit coin shows about 2 times a Month looking for high grade, resonable priced, Cents. Really having a problem with the 15S, 15D, 16S for a decent price. Don't know why but those are just about 3 times Red Book at the shows lately.[/QUOTE]
