[QUOTE="RonSanderson, post: 2656967, member: 77413"]When I posted 1915 and 1915-D, I did not have a 1915-S. That has been acquired. (After the original disappeared from its package in the mail, the seller sent me this replacement.) [ATTACH=full]588755[/ATTACH] I also had to leave out 1923-S from post [URL='https://www.cointalk.com/threads/post-your-lincolns.192928/page-214#post-2639332']#4269[/URL]. That too, has now arrived. [ATTACH=full]588757[/ATTACH] The set is complete by my criteria. I don't plan to get a 1909-S VDB or a 1914-D (too pricey), but I have every other year and mint business strike from 1909 to 1991, and all the post-war proofs 1950-2010. I am fascinated by the subtle color differences between each of the coins in each year. They never seem to be the same. All these coins are photographed under the same exact setup with no changes. The lighting is the same. The angle of the coins to the lighting is the same. The white balance is nudged identically just a tiny bit to correct the in-camera setting. The post-processing is identical on them all. On the 1949-S, not even the obverse and reverse are quite the same. Sometimes I wonder if this is due to the rolling out of the planchet, or is it from storing the coin later?
