[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 26489927, member: 4626"]Visited the local coin store today, mainly there to try to get some progress on Eisenhower dollars. They didn't really have many (they seemed to only have the silver ones, and some clad proofs which I wouldn't put in the album), but I did get a 1973-S silver business strike; last silver one I needed for the album. Didn't want to leave with just that, so I looked around, and saw a pretty decent (VF maybe?) 1909-S Lincoln, so now down to only needing 3 more to finish the Lincoln cent set! (You can probably guess which 3 I still need lol.) Also found a really nice 1967 Canadian cent to improve what I had in that set. This wasn't something I was looking for, but for 50 cents can't pass that up. Since I had my Lincoln cent album open anyway, I used the shiny 1951-S I found in circulation recently to upgrade what was in the album. I may have to settle for eBay to finish the rest of the clad Ikes I need, or find somewhat of a "lower end" coin store that will actually stock them. (One I go to most often seems somewhat upscale.) Other than a lucky find where I work, almost a year ago, I haven't seen them in circulation since the 1980's.[/QUOTE]
