<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sambyrd44, post: 2176841, member: 26653&quot;]well Not really. Just a pair of 1926 Lincolns. </p><p><br /></p><p>The 1926 cent was produced in large numbers for the time , about 157 million and many survive in mint state. The 1926 is a great coin in that a full red example is easy to locate at modest cost. Its cool to have an red Lincoln on ones type set from the 20&#039;s.</p><p><br /></p><p>The coins below are ANACS MS63 red and a raw MS63 brown. Both have been in my sets for quite a while , a decade or more and are very stable. I prefer most brown or red-brown Lincolns but have a small heard of early reds too that seem to fit right in.</p><p><br /></p><p>These early Lincolns are great as a year set since there are few that are rare or hard to locate in attractive lower mint state. I will put a set in a capitol holder one day soon.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://s858.photobucket.com/user/paulda1/media/26redbn.jpg.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://s858.photobucket.com/user/paulda1/media/26redbn.jpg.html" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i858.photobucket.com/albums/ab149/paulda1/26redbn.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
