Tommy's Top POP

I thought this was funny.....

I'm a mid-grade collector, so populations mean nothing to me. But I was plunking some of my coins into the Heritage site's "My collection" just to see what the wholesale values were. Then I got to this coin:

1938 Lincoln Cent, NGC MS-67 Red

Turns out, (according to the Heritage quote), it's a top pop! 600/0. Not bad for a $120 coin. image

Anyway, I enjoyed it. image

    I just took a look and your right, it is a top pop at NGC. Congratulations. Better yet, it shows a pop of only 394/0 as of 11/15.

    Those are NGC numbers.....But Heritage quotes the combined PCGS and NGC pops. I assume that's where the 600/0 comes from.
