    What a parade of outstanding Lincoln cents people! Way to go.

    As with this coin , I tend to like my copper on the brown side. They tend to get overlooked for coins with more red remaining therefore somewhat bearable premiums most of the time. If a person can appreciate the toning for what it is, atmospheric changes, there is lots to like on MS examples. JMO Matt

    I like them brown with tinges of red around the devices.....of course, I also like them red and toned too. LOL

    Copper, I've got to let your secret out..........Your entire set is pictured in the NGC Registry. For those of you who haven't seen it yet I recommend budgeting a couple hours to drool all over your computer desk. It is truly astounding!!!

    Here's a contrast. 66RD vs 66BN, near flawless vs very flawed.

    My first brown cent, so I thought I would show it off. I would say MS64, but I may be wrong. Still, it's nice to add some different colors to the red collection.

    I wish. I found it in the bargain box of common wheats along with a bunch of hole fillers. I kept my mouth shut about it until after the money was exchanged.

    I bought this soon after the 2009 cents were released. It has one of the many versions of the double thumb. I paid 50 cents for it, and just found it again tonight when looking through some of my coins. Does anyone still care about these or collect these? Seems they kind of fizzled....
