[QUOTE="gbroke, post: 1435878, member: 22585"]Thanks for the reply Chris. I know a good strike, especially for certain years, when it comes to Jeffersons, but that's about it. I just couldn't seem to find anything close to this one in Lincolns. Too bad the coin is ruined too. You mention the 60's compared to the modern strikes, I know exactly what you mean. I really notice a difference in Kennedy's. The 60's and 70's seem to have so much more depth to them. It is glaringly obvious when looking through my album. Was there something that changed in the minting process in general? I see the same thing with nickels.
