No way this is gonna last ... the top two guys, Lincolncentman and Terry's Coins of Color, must be fiddling with their sets. Ah well, enjoy it while you may ... All good things must end ... Happy Juneteenth all y'all!
PS Thanks to jgdcoins/John for alerting me to my Delicate Situation ...
Kind regards,
George
As soon as the grades from the last LV show are posted those two sets will be at the top again. I know a few upgrades were made. Enjoy the view from the top.
Not part of a registry set…and I usually don’t collect much copper. But the colors on this one that I saw for sale from Dennis King at the ANA show was an easy purchase that I am very pleased with.
This is one I got back from PCGS recently, I was hoping it might make a 65, but it ended up in a 64 BN holder. I really like the look of it so I'm happy either way.
I started a PCGS set for toned Lincoln cents a few months ago. I know mine aren't anything to compare with what the rest of you are posting, but it's what I can afford (I'm a YN, if that helps explain).
Hi @CentSearcher very nice, lovely toners and no need to apologize for your coins here, ever! I think many of us have been in your shoes at one time or another. I remember many years ago, I sold the only coin I will always regret selling, a well-circulated 1885 Morgan silver dollar, for seven bucks. It was my grandfather's birth-year coin from his old keyring. But I think Granddad would have approved, as the whole roasting chicken and bag of rice I bought with the seven bucks kept me from starvation for about a week. Kind regards, George / VDB Coins

@KYCopperCoins very nice!! I have a twin for your 1917. I actually owned yours from 2017 until 2019.
Here is the twin or at least semi-twin.
A couple of new pickups, one from board member @BeefCurry808 (thank you Michael) and one from last weeks Great Collection auction.

Chance favors the prepared mind.
This is one I got back from PCGS recently, I was hoping it might make a 65, but it ended up in a 64 BN holder. I really like the look of it so I'm happy either way.

Here's a few from my last submission, still waiting on half the trueviews and they have been home almost 3 weeks...
A few more recent purchases for my set. Unfortunately the 1940 D is graded cleaned UNC details. The first 1961 is PR67 RB, and the second is PR66 RB

Ok...I finally got my trueviews after having my coins back home for 3 weeks...these are all ms63bn other than 1 in rb...tell me how bad I got hosed?
A few I feel it was accurate on...but I'm pretty sure these coins never saw a loupe and the grader hated toned lincolns.
Here's all the 64's from the sub.
And here's all the 65s but one 1944 in 65rb that hasn't had the trueview added yet...
And the two in 66

Was hoping this one would go higher...but I like it
