I post about these every few years wondering if anyone may have any new information. I never see them sell at auction but I'm sure they must. I need to put a value on the one I own before it goes to my son. I did see just the large Lincoln medal from the large plaque on ebay sometime back and it brought crazy money. The first two Images are not the one I own. I have been too lazy to unpack it and take good images. The last image is a paper weight with an actual cent mounted in it. I wonder what it's value is as well.
Nice plaques Larry. I'll bet Paul Cunningham could give you a value. Also he is taking pre-orders for his new book Lincoln's Metallic Imagery. They might be listed in the book.
@ldhair The last gift I won on the NGC trivia game was the book, Abraham Lincoln - Beyond the American Icon. It contains more than 400 pages of pins, badges, plaques, photos, etc. Unfortunately, this plaque is not listed. Chris
I see Paul each year at the Fun show. He has sold me a few plaques over the years. I'm looking forward to getting his book. I may see if I can email him about these.
I had a chance to look thru a early draft of his book. Looking forward to seeing the pics of my collection in the final. He should have them ready to ship.
I'll bet you didn't miss it. I'm just a sucker for Lincoln stuff. A teacher I had back in 7th grade got me hooked. I still wonder if the guy was a coin collector.
Lol, I was just going to come in here and point you towards Paul Cunningham as well. I just met him at Summer FUN and he seems like a nice guy. Good luck! http://www.cunninghamexonumia.com/ Edit: On another note, I showed him my Silver Toned Proof Lincoln Cent and he had NEVER seen anything like it before.
