Been a while since I said this - two new additions to my Lincoln date set

With one of the 1982 zinc varieties notably excepted, my date set of clipped Lincolns is complete to 2008, when the various design changes made a truly complete set impractical. I have been adding Shield cents to the set here and there, but I have not pursued them with the same passion as I did the wheats and memorials.

That all said, two coins popped up on eBay in the past week at reasonable prices, so into the album they went tonight.


The 2023 is small but genuine, and is now the newest coin in the set. I still don't have any 2022 clips, and I have just a lonely Denver example from 2021.

Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.
