[QUOTE="krispy, post: 721766, member: 19065"]I've received my first LN6 set and found it to be a very nice presentation. I love the look of the Proof cents, especially finding the look of the mirror-like fields very dynamic next to the matte-looking devices. For this reason I am very pleased that I stocked up on the 2009 4 pc. Lincoln Proof sets back in August, which are to be delivered in November. I'm still not a fan of the design of the Lincoln silver dollar but the contrast of silver next to the copper [U]is[/U] appealing. I will wager that these new 95% copper Proof Lincoln cent coins, while encapsulated and treated with the anti tarnish techniques by the Mint, will tone in short order. I have some close up images of the 'log cabin' and 'unfinished capital' cents to share. I can see 'marks' in the matte fields as well as what looks like spots or wash/residue on the obverse. I can see these both with and without magnification. These images are shot with 10x and 26x loupes. I'm not sure what these things are but I'd like members to give their thoughts and to also post any issues you find with your LN6 sets, be they: errors, spots, tarnish, die problems, et al.
