<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sf340flier, post: 394377, member: 5806&quot;]I can talk a little about the lincolns.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Just prior to 56, I would look for 55-s&#039;s.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know about everyone else, but these are getting kinda tough to find (and so is a 54-p for that matter).</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, the keys would be nice (but spendy): 1909-s vdb, 1914-d, 1922 plain, and the 1931-s.&nbsp; Also, all semi-keys in the wheat series are good long-term holds, imo.&nbsp; These include all s mints from 09 to 15.&nbsp; The 22-d and 24-d are good to collect.&nbsp; You should be able to get these in VF or higher for a reasonable amount now.</p><p><br /></p><p>For more modern lincolns, I would reccomend going to coppercoins.com and looking for varieties.&nbsp; There are also some good books, like Looking through the Lincolns, for example.</p><p><br /></p><p>And as far as metal content on the lincolns, all lincolns minted prior to 1982 were copper, and have a higher melt value.&nbsp; For silver coins, look for anything 1964 and before for higher silver content.&nbsp; Also, a great book to buy would be the red book, available at any coin store or online (around $15).</p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
