<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 26662051, member: 10461&quot;]Today, January 26th, we are doing the <b>Lincoln Cent Bronze Wheat Heads (1908-1958)</b>, excluding, of course, the 1943 steel cents, which will be our next type.</p><p><br /></p><p>I might as well share one of my best cherrypicks. Found this in a bulk Wheat cent lot I bought right here on BST, back in 2006. Since I had commingled a couple of different lots before sorting them, I’m not sure who I sourced it from, or I’d have thrown him a bone.</p><p><br /></p><p>So I essentially paid five cents or less for this coin. Later sold it for $700-ish after PCGS graded it XF40.</p><p><br /></p><p>When I found it in the bag, there was a little piece of dirt hiding the mintmark. I was initially happy enough finding an XF 1914 alone, but when I removed that speck of gunk with a toothpick and saw that “D” underneath, I let out a shout that awoke my sleeping wife!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/editor/c6/divmf7kwcd7u.jpeg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
