which verity will be worth more?

Any guesses

well after watching them and the apparent abundance of them on ebay, I am going to go out on a limb and say that they are going to be the 2004 versions of the 1995 DDO Lincoln Cent.

It certainly would appear as though there is no shortage on them.

The upper leaf so far seems to be 1/2 as common. maybe there was only a single die of this type and two of the lower leaf? Since I think people will try to collect these as a set, even given that the lower leaf is higher on the coolness factor I would have to say the upper variety, from current indiations will be worth more.


I think they are more rare than the 1995 DDO, at least from the evidence so far. No one will know for sure until the dust clears. If only the small batch that hit Tuscon contains them then I expect that they will be worth far more than a 95DDO lincoln. If an entire truckload appears in some other city they may only carry a slight premium in years to come. The supply on Ebay is drying up, there are only 26 auctions now and there were 40 something the other day. It is safe to say that there are multiple hundred of them but exactly how many is unknown.

Everyone is waiting to see what the mint says. If the mint confirms that these were from a different, not intended for circulation design, katy bar the door, these could be worth several hundreds. If they are die gouges and a gazillion show up, maybe only a few bucks each. Anyone's guess is as good at this point.

The worst case is that the three will be equal in mintage and value.
