Nice Lincoln album! You've already got quite a few that are tough to find!
+1! Those albums are a fun way to start a collection. I have some duplicate lincoln cents I could send you to help fill in the spots if you and your dad PM me. I have a 1912, 1916, 1917, 1920, 1923, 1929, and 1938.

Welcome! I started when I was 12 in 1961 and still avidly collecting and researching 59 years later. It keeps me sane in my retirement!
I also started in 1961 when I was 10. I am still going strong. I have been to two large regional shows in the last 6 weeks.

Hey if your still on the board I maybe able to help you with your Lincoln cents. I just purchased 500 for young collectors in my area. Don’t want to fill your album because the hunt is where it’s at I think. I have quite a few other’ type cons waiting for you or Landon (others as well), good job young man I like your sprit 👍
Welcome aboard young man. I started at 50 just 3 years ago and your already way ahead of me, lol.
Have your dad send me a PM I would like to send you a couple of Franklins.
Great new coins! It's awesome to see how many other forum members are happy to step up and help with your collection too. Strong is your pajama collection as well, haha.
Hope you have a good dealer near you. If so, perhaps your dad and you could visit upon occasions. Welcome to the forum. Please show us your pickups as you get them.

Added: I did not know you were so close to Phoenix. Many, many coin shops. Ask on the forum for any well known fair dealers, maybe even a letter of introduction. Just a thought.

Yes i know "FBL" stands for Full Bell Lines and i think PCGS looks for the top and bottom and i don't know for sure what NGC looks for but i don not know if they got it right. My Dad and me have a grading book we can read that and i will know if they got it right.
Good to see you are still here young Jedi Master! It seems like you are having a lot of fun, and also making some good progress with your collection since that first post.
Have your Dad PM me when you see this. I have something I'd like to discuss with him.

Welcome to the Boards @Azjedi ! I think the coins that you are collecting, particularly Franklins, are Wonderful!
Remember, the single most important thing about coin collecting is to HAVE FUN!!!

Welcome to the party.
Looking for Top Pop Mercury Dime Varieties & High Grade Mercury Dime Toners.
Never mind my previous posts thought it could be fun but rather not cause any problems.

Here's a PCGS Franklin that i added to my collection!
I thought only my kids were up that late.
That’s a very nice Franklin! Congrats!
Really nice Franklin! They're one of my favorite types too. Do you know what the "FBL" means and did you check to make sure PCGS got it right?

one more week until i get my dog!
nice start on the 7070 and welcome aboard
Kennedys are my quest...
That sounds great!
I want a dog.
Azjudi:
Make sure your dog doesn't eat any of your coins!!
If you go to a bank and ask for a roll or 2 of halves, I'd bet dollars to donuts you'll find that needed Bicentennial half among them!
Good luck!
