Thank you,—you can contact one of the folk on the list, or maybe someone can contact you, to send a few ahead—I do not know what they added to what you see above. I’m sure that there’s room for some of them. This game needs your interest as much as your cents.
Hello fellow Lincoln project participants. I was away for a couple days but now have selected 10 coins to add. I paid one dime for the lot (well I picked them roll hunting 50 years ago so face value on each).
I tried to select a few dates that have low mintage. If these are not the correct quality or need a dip feel free to replace them.
As I'm next after after pcgscacgold I'm ready to do my part. With only 4 people left, should the album not be completed by the end of the list, I'll throw my name on there again to help get it filled. Anybody else ?

I'm in have plenty of undesirable wheats so put my name on the list
The Lincoln project is back on the road. Dropped it off this morning. Expected to arrive on Monday. Under $10 to ship so about the same as the beers I had last weekend
If the two coins that I added are nicer examples than of the ones any of you guys have, you can swap them for your examples. Just keep the dates right. This is not permission to swap for the the coins that others put in. Only the 1914D and the 1909S.
There is no hurry to do this. Keep it for a while, take it to a bar for a glass of whiskey and a cigar. Photograph the folder at a Reds game or the Gateway arch, This is oneupsmanship for entertainment.
Never knew we too ,
report, pictures, and comments (?) on this thread.
Sry I'm late though.
Check this out !
The coin 1993 D was found near the end of two boxes of bank rolls. The front image on the obverse looks like paper with a solid raise feel. but I did touch.
Coin is in my hand, Not with album.
Look for it on The Random Picture Friday thread.
But the reverse !
( I ' m trying to be good here, ( you- know? }
I'll be back.
I was thinking landmarks, I was at a bar last night where a few cheerleaders were celebrating, I would have asked them to make a selfie with it. I do not fear strangers and explain what I am doing, some folk go along, I figure out who will bother with me. The show “Impractical Jokers” shows how much you can get a stranger to cooperate.
I photographed my VW bus in as many places as I could. I asked strangers in traffic jams to take photos and email them to me. I gave them a piece of paper with my address. These women and I had crawled side by side for an hour on 95 in Florida when I asked them to send me a photo of the bus.

What year is your bus looks to be in excellent condition
1967—it is among the best all original examples remaining in the world. All of the Westfalia camping bits managed to stay with it. I sold it a few years ago, though. We use the Metris for camping now.
I am a traitor to the VW Bus crowd now, but I had had enough of vintage travel. I could not buy collision insurance for it for the fifteen years that we traveled in it. The vintage auto insurers do not insure “recreational vehicles”. To use it the way we did required constant tuning and tweaking, every 1500 to 3000 miles. I was sick for a couple of years and could not maintain it. The moral duty to preserve it’s originality was oppressive.
A few, just of the holders themselves. Been slammed at work and with volunteer runs. Lucky I got it mailed out yesterday. I'll post as soon as I get time.
I have it now, but the timing wasn’t good as I received it right before a short vacation/wedding . Just got home today, should have some photos tomorrow if the next person in line can kindly pm me their shipping address.
I didn’t get a chance to post here yesterday, but the package was shipped out to @Namvet69 and he should have it early next week. I had to go visit an lcs to find dates that weren’t already taken in the album, but I did manage to fill 9 of them.

Are there many spaces left?
Yes, I would say its at about 50% capacity. That picture is after I was done with it.

Can't remember who sent the Lincoln Roadshow to me. I believe it came from Minn., Wis. or Mich. Not 100% sure. I'm in Ohio. I sent it to Florida. It would be nice to track it from the beginning to the end and see how many miles it traveled.

By the time the book gets to me it will be a finished project.
There are 58 open slots and only 4 people left. I think there will be some open spots for you![:smiley: :smiley:](https://forums.collectors.com/resources/emoji/smiley.png)
I tried to pick a number of them that had under 60 million made. Thought those might be harder to fill.

Darn, I should have taken on the family vacation to Indiana Dunes National Park. Maybe next time.

Since these are supposed rough, details coins, maybe someone
can get a pic in a WalMart parking lot.

No open wounds, though; comedy, maybe pathos.
Right. HIPPA forbids that.
No selfies with the victims, then, huh?

Fraz, album rec'd this a.m. I anticipate shipping to DeplorableDan Thursday.

Just bringing this thread back to page one. Where is Abe these days? How is the album looking?

I have been wondering the same thing.
Not a "PEEP" in over a week. Some of these imatators no more look
like Lincoln than I look like Jennifer Anniston.
Sent out insured with tracking to Deplorabledan on Sept. 1st. Haven't heard anything since.

@Tom147 cracked that 38 out of a holder. @EmeraldATV put in a 1906/66. Dan had to go to the penny store.
