Here's one I recently had certified. It's ccw 'D' low. Present owner says he's proud to own this coin, which cost me $1. No, I didn't cheat a little ole grandpa out of their '14-D for only $1.It got a Details Good grade.

I know longer own this but this was from a raw set.
I like this one rather well ...
Kind regards,

So do I.
I started out as a collector with the two Whitman Lincoln Cent folders, but lost interest in the set in favor of Indian Cents, Type coins and gold. Around 1980 I decided to finish my "boyhood" collection with the few pieces I didn't have, which was most all of the key and semi-key dates. I bought coins that went with the rest of the collection, which was and still is housed in a "liberty of Coins" album.
So, here is my very pedestrian 1914-D cent bought circa 1980.
And here is one you DON"T WANT TO BUY because it used to be a 1944-D

I am looking for nice 1914 D if anyone has one for sale.
This is an altered 1944-D.
I had this one until last year and loved it.

Real nice ones! I've noticed that a majority of 1914-D Cents don't exhibit this kind of sharpness as struck.

This is one edloreux was selling from nice raw set he bought, 63 brown
Do you think that PIDT on the rev took away from the grade?
I missed that part! Sorry.
The only Lincolns I still need are 1914-D, 1909-S, 1922-D, and 1924-D (I have the SVDB). Good chance 1914-D is my last coin. Like seeing your guys' coins.

No, in my opinion that is 65 brown all day long.
No worries. It is the crown jewel of my counterfeit collection.
XF45 has for a long time been my favorite grade.
I have a PCGS VF30-CAC to post image of but I can't locate the image right now. All of the countless hours of metal detecting in Denver Colorado back in the day and I didn't find a single example of '14-D cent. Found several '14 Philly issue cents,'14-D quarter and dime but no 1914 penny with the magic 'D' on it.

Can this be "restored" it has corrosion. Unfortunate rim damage.
The 1914-D in the album, looking for an upgrade:
No.

Nothing can help or restore this coin.

It's toast. When posting pictures, try to post both sides of the coin.
I think I'd rather have that corroded one in the album.
A little reverse damage but.........seeing it's the only one I have, it's my best - LOL!
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
MOS0231: It's corroded on both sides. I'm going to get a better grade of coin for the 1914-D spot. The album is complete, now I'm going through and upgrading.
Here's my PCGS VF30 CAC

A plus, in my opinion, is a coin that doesn't have too much gunk hanging around the date and mintmark.
