<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RonSanderson, post: 2599666, member: 77413&quot;]1934 was the first year to introduce the long-tailed 3 that matched the style of the 9 and 6. Apparently this was always the intended typeface for the numerals. I happen to like the proportions of the rounded 3&#039;s - like on the 1933&#039;s in post <a href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/post-your-lincolns.192928/page-203#post-2599585" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/post-your-lincolns.192928/page-203#post-2599585">#4056</a>.</p><p><br /></p><p>Since the second 1934 is a bit spotty on the front, but beautiful on the back, it is also shown in the display tray with the reverse up.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]567238[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]567239[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]567240[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I purchased the top coin for 12.80. The other two mark the beginning of the 1934-1991 set I bought in a Dansco, so I figure them for $1.25 each. I&#039;m glad I&#039;m able to appreciate the original collector&#039;s efforts, and that the set he so carefully put together was able to find a good home. </p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s part of the set. I had already moved the other 160 coins into holders and these were waiting for more holders to arrive. I&#039;ll post pictures of these soon, I imagine.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]567243[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
