CW reports mint to make 5 pc Lincoln set.

This should be a fascinating set. It's to include a proof coin and one each of a regular
circulation strike P and D mint coin and one each of a mint set quality P and D mint coin.

While these coins can't positively be identified as coming from a regular production run or
a min set run, the differences when seeing them side by side will be striking. Many of the
mint set cents are extremely nice gems in recent years and PL examples are fairly common.
While circulation issue coins approach or can even exceed this quality, they are extremely
scarce most years and probably don't exist for some dates.

These sets will prove most interesting and may contain some very special coins.

    Sounds like it will be a very nice set.

    Does it say when and how much ?

    Sam, it'll be VERY interesting to see the contrast in a sanctioned product. Should be really nice to own.

    They are doing a bunch of these minor sets. They are also doing a 6 piece Jefferson set.
