Both of mine posted here are raw, there is a small spot on the 61 on the neck that the picture doesn't really pick up that would keep it from being worth getting slabbed probably, but thanks!
Your 1956 half has really caught my eye. I can't be sure, but the eagle's feathers look peculiar and look like a 1959 class III doubled die. I am wondering if yours is. I am not aware of any existing other than one 1959 die. Could you look at the dot to the left of E in EPU for doubling and also at the M of UNUM?
Yes, it is spacemonkeys template, the pics are taken using a Nikkon 995 on a copy stand with reveal light bulbs. I sometimes (can't remember if I did on this one or not) use a cut up milk jug over the coin and shoot down into it to diffuse the lighting for proofs.

Thanks Stefanie, the 4 cents (P&D) are VERY nicely toned on both sides, but IMO aren't worth slabbing as they are at best 65. The images are the sellers images, and don't show the colors of the Lincolns well. Having said that, here is a close-up, and the other side...

I have found power in the mysteries of thought.
It is always a question of knowing and seeing, and not that of believing.
Our virtues, and our failings are inseparable, like force, and matter. When they separate, man is no more.

My setup with pictures is on page two of this thread.
