Still nothing new. I think I'll work on adding a piece of copper next for my Type Set.

Luv the luster on that one; looks like an '09 matte

I do have my 1850 LC that has been bathing in mineral oil for 16 months.............I haven't checked on it for about 6 months, other than that nothing new for me copper wise.

Here are my original images, any bets how it will turn out (I hate you Lee )?

Gorgeous '45 Lee. I haven't seen that before.

Hey Michael - sell me your '13-D! Mine was the last coin from the die before they tossed it.

Picked it up on the Bay as a ANACS MS63.

Mine's a PCGS 64RD. I'll trade you, even. (Don't do it. )

Nice examples so far!!

Buy the coin, not the holder.

Mike that coin really is nicer than either image portrays. Look at the beard detail remaining for a 40's series coin. It also has a shock of blue on the shoulder that the images also don't really show very well. Super coin "in-hand"!



Should have kept this one for my Type Set:

Haven't seen a ton of exciting material priced right lately. Think I'm in a rut.

Nice 1873 IHC, pheh.

Both are super examples Michael, especially the 1915. The beard detail is fantastic for the year, see the 1913 as an example!! The dies were redone in 1916 due to wear issues. Super Nice!!


How often do you see purple on a Lincoln Cent:


66 RB, POP 14/0

That is a beautiful piece and a knockout of an addition

I've always loved your scanned images Jim. Most scanners are subpar but this one is sweet. What type do you use?

From the dark side - but really cool! "I among slaves enjoy my freedom" If you've ever owned a cat, you know how true it is!

Copper? My sons and I were able to dig through some mine tailings as part of the Copper Country Mineral Retreat in the Keweenaw Peninsula of Upper Michigan earlier this month. We didn't find enough for me to retire , but we did have fun and found a number of mineral specimens that contained native copper, including this palm-sized specimen (which we still need to clean up):


We brought home a few microminerals, including these neat little copper crystals about 1 mm or smaller in size:


Here's a large cent -- coined from Michigan copper -- that I recently picked up on eBay. Mmm, chocolate!

LeeG

Cool stuff so far!! Thanks everyone for sharing.

I like this one.

I was at a show all weekend so this is the first chance I've had to see all the copper for this weekend - awesome pieces, every one of them! Here's one of my errors - a neat 1970-S Lincoln with a huge cud.
