This is it, I need help to find the tie-breaker Proof Lincoln Cent. There are 3 people tied for #1 in the 1950-pres.

Here is my set, if anybody have something I need and wants to sell, please PM me...

Marty's Proof Lincoln Cents

I can really use 1 more PR70DCAM, I know they are out there...

Thanks
Marty

    GO, Marty, GO!!!!

    Congratulations on a great set!

    Boy the '68, '69 and '71 in 69 DCAM sure would be nice for your set. Those years seemed hard for proof Jeffersons in that grade also. Unfortunately I don't have anything you can use right now. Good luck!

    I have 20 sealed (5 sealed 4 packs) or 1971 proof sets coming in. If any look good and DCAM they are going to PCGS right away. I'd be happy getting a couple more PR70DCAMs...

    Marty, Heritage has a 69Dcam up for auction,1972-s. I notice yours is a 68.

    I'm high bidder on that. Beleave me I have searching everywhere. I cleaned Dave Lawerence Coins out of the PR70DCAMs they had. Abused the credit card. Just need one more to put me over the top....

    That brings up another question. Here are the standings right now:

    1 MTH 68.78 100% 85% 68.78
    1 Zaniewski Memorial Proofs 68.78 100% 100% 68.78
    1 Marty Kuklinski Lincoln Collection 68.78 100% 90% 68.78


    What does PCGS do in case of a tie???
    It looks like the % of DCAMS does not figure into it, just who had the highest points first.

    Anybody know for sure????

    Don't worry about 1st place yet, I'm sure someone is planning a few upgrades. As soon as Long beach is past, I'll bet there will be a few upgrades......

    I expect more upgrades too. Since I won't be one of them, I offered Marty an option on one of my proofs. It was nice being #1 for a short while.

    Marty,

    So much for a tiebreaker - where did these EBC Sets come from?!?! Congrats to the owner and good luck on upgrades Marty!! Dave
  • MadMartyMadMarty Posts: 16,697 ✭✭✭
    That EBC set snuck in there, it's one hell of a set. A few more upgrades I might give him a run for the top spot. Waiting for the PCGS gradings to come back. My 2002s all came back PR69DCAMs with the exception of one dime. not bad for 5 sets send in...
