I realize that in this thread I'm just tooting my own horn, but honestly, I am very proud to now own a complete 82 coin PCGS Set Registry of proof Lincoln Cents (1909-2006). This set was aquired by me over the past 23 years. The coins represent a nice example of each date and variety consistant with reasonable cost.

I am happy to share comments and a picture of each coin as well as my commentary about the minting of these coins through the years.

To those of you who collect the proof version of the Lincoln Cent series, I encourage you to strive to get them all. It will not be easy, but the satisfaction of completion is well worth the time and effort.

    You have a VERY nice set of lincolns, so much that I'm commenting on them. As you may as well know I collect Roosevelts and other Dimes and really do not have a fancy for Lincolns. You certainly deserve your "dues" image Your Lincoln proof set is up-gradeable of course, but is really a Brilliant collection and shows obviously YEARS of hard work and dedication, which in my mind is truly magnificant to say the least.

    You should not feel an Oz. of guilt for tooting your own horn!

    Congrats!!!

    Paul.

    Later, Paul.

    A very nice set of Proof Lincoln Cents, some with very low populations. You should pat yourself on the back for for a job well done. A fine accomplishment Steve image

    Steve, that is a wonderful achievement! Congratulations!

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    That's just VERY neat, Steve!

    (And if you can't toot your own horn about your Registry set HERE, where can you toot it??) image

    Here's a warning parable for coin collectors...

    Nicely done. I think it is important to note the time that it took you to create your set. It shows dedication. Too many of the sets today are put together quickly and then sold off.

    Nice job.

    Amen brother, it is nice to see a set made from love of the hobby rather than a quick (3-5 year) profit center.
