<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coppermania, post: 1002356, member: 18304&quot;]I would have to say the Obverse of the Lincoln Cent. This coin is dripping with art nouveau composition. With high detail in the beard and ear of Lincoln highlight other portrait details like the bow tie that really show if a coin is well struck. Contrast that with wide open fields on left and right that narry a hairline can hide, much less a bag mark or hit. The long tailed nine&#039;s, three&#039;s and fives in the date are unique and marry perfectly to the lettering on the reverse. With &quot;IN GOD WE TRUST&quot; rings BOOM&lt; BOOM&lt; BOOM and LIBERTY says it all without seeming crowded. AHH, I never get bored with that coin, especially the early dates, which were sculpted by craftsmen at the top of their game long before efficiency experts and computers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
