Beautiful coin to collect

I bid on that but it went for more than I wanted to spend at the time.

A somewhat affordable one:

pls pm me with what it sold for, its grade & if you know who owns it, & the auction firm.

Here is a much more affordable one. This one is in an MS-64 holder. I built sort of an "economy set" back in the day. When you are a dealer you can only take so much. So people don't think you should anything at all, but I think that a reference set is a good way to keep your grading eye grounded.

Commems are generally cheap but the ones I’d want to own are still quite pricey

Paying "too much" is very educational.

ECHOES · January 13, 2018 4:35PM

One of my favorite coins...

I have always liked the Lincoln commem. for me it is rare as commemorative coins go because I think the design of both sides is really, really nice. President Lincoln's portrait is especially well done, he's younger, has a very pensive expression and doesn't yet appear to be "aged" by the office. as everyone's pictures show, this particular coin is likely to be found very nice. I haven't yet bought one. it seems every time I try I'm beaten back.

Mark, I would like to say the coins you posted are very nice, the texture of that Missouri is exquisite!!!!
