Most of you probably already seen this. I just got it back a few days ago from the plastic factory. It's a 63.

Love it! The holder looks like a PCGS slab. Is this slabbed by our hosts?

Are you kidding?? No just resting on a slab. Haha

Why kidding? PCGS slabs both Feuchtwangers and electrotypes. Might be worth checking

Nice expo cent CC! The impression is nice and sharp on that piece and the design is perfect for elongation. Thanks for posting it!

It's a new weekend but I don't see a new CFTW thread. So to start it for this weekend here are a half penny and three farthings of Spence.

Best, SH

The 1925-S looks undergraded to me. I'm trying to learn how to grade. I bought a book by David Bowers on grading by photographs. So it probably is graded accurately and it just looks better to me because I'm not an expert grader.

His name was James Conder, not John.

I was hoping for a slightly higher grade but I am perfectly happy with 63. The things I liked about it when I bought it raw was the strike and the nice even color.

1Mike1 · November 7, 2015 9:37AM

Here's one I bought from a forum member a while back. The light on the surface is a little bright but I'm still working on my photo skills. It's a 65

Still waiting on this one to show in the mail. But, it is bought and paid for so seller pics included until I get new family portraits.

I just picked this up in the Stack's auction last night. First coin I've purchased in over five years ... a little crusty copper for the weekend ;-)

'Nother kind gift of a 1965 SMS Lincoln (my birthyear) from LasVegasTeddy, who is secretly scheming to convert me to a collector of modern Liteside. He hasn't, but I must give him credit for trying. I'm learning to develop some appreciation for what always looked like "pocket change" to me in the past.

OK, so Abe's got a fruit fly or moth buzzing in front of his eyes on this one, but you've gotta admit the toning on it is cool. And the price ($0.00) was right. Teddy named it "Red Savage".

I understand toned SMS Lincolns are somewhat scarcer?
