More Copper Lincoln NEWPS with Photos from TODD!!

Here are a few more new Lincolns that Todd just photographed for me. These aren't quite as boldly toned as the 1877 and 1914-D, but I think they are still pretty nice. And I'm having so much fun sharing these with such an appreciative audience! Thank you for keep coming back!

the 1909 and 1916 are really nice!

 

I am more partial to the 15 and 16 - particularly the 16. However, they are all nice coins.

 

I love all four, but the 1916 is 'super awesome'!

 

Those are all very eye-catching! I too may become seduced by the charms of colorful copper!

 

I agree, that '16 is nice, real nice

 

Some fine coins you have there. I'm guessing these are from your private collection. Do you collect anything below MS64?

Great stuff there PL. Love the 1915, that color just jumps off the surface. You've sure got a great eye. :thumb:

 

Yes, I like that 1915 too. When I had these coins at the ANA to give to Todd to photograph, I showed them to a few customers, which was a BIG mistake. I had a couple of them almost in tears because I wouldn't sell them! One guy offered me a lot of money and a 1909 vdb double die in trade for that 1915. Another guy actually pleaded with me to sell him the 1916. Boy my soft heart and the dealer in me made it hard to keep turning them down, but the hard part of my heart and my selfishness kept saying "don't do it, you won't find another one like this," so I'm sure glad my hard heart won!

And yes I don't necessarily need MS64 or better. My 1877 was MS63 until I found the MS65 I posted on another thread. And the 1864-L with the reeded edge that I posted a while back is only a nice AU. But I do prefer MS64 or better because they usually don't have spots or too many dings. What I look for first is eye appeal, and my biggest turn off is spots. I can live with a weaker strike and a couple dings over spots. And often MS63 or lower will have a spot or some other issue that makes it less appealing to me.

 

. . . those guys knew how to make'em back then!

 

All very, very beautiful....that 1909 is just SICK! Congrats!
