I want to publically comment on the GREAT job Duane has done in describing EACH of his nine spectactular Matte Proof Lincoln cents in the Set Registry. His comments attached to each picture gives the viewer a real appreciation of his set. I highly recommend everyone who enjoys reading about and viewing MPL's or any other coins to take a look in the Set Registry under Lincoln cents (1909-1916) current finest set #8. Click on the picture of the 1909VDB and enjoy.

Wow!! Thank you!

Just got back from a [rightful] spousal "non-permitted WIFI" and "coin" vacation. Yes, the doghouse it was after Baltimore....... Try third mortgages!!

But Baltimore was about as good a first collector show as anyone could wish for. We have a very special group of people in our collecting circle, and my initiation was positive.

Bob has generously offered to photograph some of the coins that badly need it, and I'll get those up ASAP as his work will do the coins justice.

Man, we are a passionate group!

Thanks again for all the concerns : )

Duane worked with Jaime Hernandez of PCGS to produce a GREAT article about MPL's in general and his GREAT collection in specific. Here is the link. Steve
