Perhaps this will help newbies who dedicate their time to this hobby in search of the great find Lincoln Cent.
I hope this in some way may alleviate their questions regarding change finds and gives them something to
compare to all in one place.

Nice pics, Jim! We'll see if it does any good.
This is a great idea!
Need some RPM shots also. Great what you have so far.

Thanks, that's really helpful. worth a bookmark for sure.
Great idea. Nice photos of the yes's. Now you need a couple photos of the common no's.
Should be "Photos of Lincoln Cent variety coins for newbies"
Shouldn't this be in the BST forum? List prices please...

Great post showing them all in one place very much appreciated.
Highly doubtful it will stop the troll or new persons post guess they they found the PCGS forum somwhow? over the flood of like questions on other coin forums.
Thank goodness some of them their questions in q and a in pcgs forum instead of this one.
Great post...should help our new collectors immensely. Thanks @jesbroken....Cheers, RickO
Great effort! But we still need pics of the 1917 DDO-001, 1936 DDO-001, 002, and 003, 1941 DDO-001 and 002, and the 1995-D DDO-003. Images of all these are available at http://varietyvista.com but I don't know if they could be posted here.
1944 -D D/S numbers 1 and 2 would be a nice addition, too.
I edited the op to add the 1958 DDO Lincoln Cent. Sorry I missed it first round. Mark Feld mentioned it across the street.

It's good you added that one. We've had a few inquiries on it here.
I've posted pictures of a 95-D DDO before, feel free to take the pics and add them here if you want. Also have a decent picture of a 64DDR with the split serifs and notches pointed out to try to help the newer doubled die searchers.
Collector, occasional seller
This can only help. At least that's what I think.

Can I just say that very first 55 DDO is gorgeous!!!

It will help, if they see this post. On advice from Insider2, I just ordered "grading coins by photographs" by Bowers. I appreciate great reference materials. Peace Roy

The 1964 DDR-001 is a good addition, too.
@koynekwest
I will work on some of these more modern ones tomorrow. The earlier dates are gargantuous in number. I kind of felt these are coins yn's could search change or bank rolls for and maybe find one. At least they will have some place to go to see them all. Hope they save this post.

Uh, we need to post a picture of a pop out from an electrical box, corroded and run over by a truck, with the message “not a cent, not an error.” 😜
He who knows he has enough is rich.
Great post !
Let's hope they use your presentation. It's very well done and it would behoove all those who think they have some of these to check there first before they post a dozen pics.
