Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

Do not fall into the error of the artisan who boasts of twenty years experience in his craft while in fact he has had only one year of experience... twenty times.

This is a favorite of mine. I started collecting quarters back in 1961 at the ripe old age of 8 years old. Oh man, these 1932-D quarters at $15 and up were soooooo out of my reach. They were the holy grail of Washington quarters. Well, actually putting together quarters were not easy since quarters were worth a REAL QUARTER! A coke was 5c (even though they were only 6 or 6 1/2 oz bottles).
Ok, enough reminiscing!
This coin just was waiting for me and I had to swoop it up a few years back. Its eye appeal exceeds many MS-65 1932-D quarters and while it is probably an MS-64 in an MS-63 slab it stays right where it is!

Nice looking three-legger fountainhead.

I sold the bottom one a while back.
Thanks. Those are the kinds I'm trying to get to supliment my retirement fund. Just think, I've got thirty years to build it up!
