1959-2010 BU LINCOLN MEMORIAL CENT SET + BU WHEAT PENNY ***** 50 YEARS OF LINCOLN MEMORIAL CENTS ***** THIS AUCTION CONSISTS OF A BRILLIANT UNCIRCULATED SET OF LINCOLN MEMORIAL CENTS DATING FROM 1959-2010. THE BRAND NEW 2010-P & 2010-D LINCOLN CENTS ARE INCLUDED, THEY ARE VERY TOUGH TO GET. THEY DISPLAY THE UNION SHIELD ON THE REVERSE WHICH IS FITTING SINCE PRESIDENT LINCOLN HELPED TO PRESERVE THE UNION DURING THE CIVIL WAR. ALSO INCLUDED IN THIS COLLECTION ARE THE 4 DESIGNS OF 2009-P & D LOG CABIN + FORMATIVE YEARS + PROFESSIONAL LIFE + PRESIDENTIAL YEARS CENTS THAT WERE RELEASED LAST YEAR. THESE NEW CENTS ARE VERY TOUGH TO GET AND SELLING LIKE HOTCAKES! I HAVE HEARD THAT THESE 2009 & 2010 CENTS WILL HAVE VERY SMALL MINTAGES MAKING THEM EXTREMELY DESIRABLE IN THE FUTURE. T IS ALSO ONE BRILLIANT UNCIRCULATED WHEAT CENT FROM THE FIFTIES INCLUDED THAT COMES OUT OF AN ORIGINAL BU ROLL THAT HAS BEEN PUT AWAY FOR DECADES. AFTER ALMOST A YEAR OF SEARCHING I WAS ABLE TO OBTAIN AN ORIGINAL BANK ROLL FROM EACH YEAR AND MINT FROM 1959 TO PRESENT. I HAD NO IDEA THAT IT WOULD BE THAT DIFFICULT TO ACQUIRE A COMPLETE ROLL SET. SOME OF THESE DATES ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND NICE SPOT FREE ROLLS. I REJECTED HUNDREDS OF ROLLS BECAUSE OF HEAVY SPOTTING, ONLY PURCHASING THE BEST I COULD FIND. SOME OF THE DATES HAVE SKYROCKETED IN VALUE IN THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS AS SOME YEARS WERE NOT SAVED IN ANY LARGE QUANTITIES. NOW T ARE NOT ENOUGH COINS TO SATISFY DEMAND. T IS ONE COIN FROM EACH OF THE FOLLOWING DATES AND MINTMARKS INCLUDED IN THIS SET: 1959-P, 1959-D, 1960-P LARGE DATE, 1960-D LARGE DATE, 1961-P, 1961-D, 1962-P, 1962-D, 1963-P, 1963-D, 1964-P, 1964-D, 1965-P, 1966-P, 1967-P, 1968-P, 1968-D, 1968-S, 1969-P, 1969-D, 1969-S, 1970-P, 1970-D, 1970-S LARGE DATE, 1971-P, 1971-D, 1971-S, 1972-P, 1972-D, 1972-S, 1973-P, 1973-D, 1973-S, 1974-P, 1974-D, 1974-S, 1975-P, 1975-D, 1976-P, 1976-D, 1977-P, 1977-D, 1978-P, 1978-D, 1979-P, 1979-D, 1980-P, 1980-D, 1981-P, 1981-D, 1982-P COPPER LARGE DATE, 1982-D COPPER LARGE DATE, 1983-P, 1983-D, 1984-P, 1984-D, 1985-P, 1985-D, 1986-P, 1986-D, 1987-P, 1987-D, 1988-P, 1988-D, 1989-P, 1989-D, 1990-P, 1990-D, 1991-P, 1991-D, 1992-P, 1992-D, 1993-P, 1993-D, 1994-P, 1994-D, 1995-P, 1995-D, 1996-P, 1996-D, 1997-P, 1997-D, 1998-P, 1998-D, 1999-P, 1999-D, 2000-P, 2000-D, 2001-P, 2001-D, 2002-P, 2002-D, 2003-P, 2003-D, 2004-P, 2004-D, 2005-P, 2005-D, 2006-P, 2006-D, 2007-P, 2007-D, 2008-PD, 2009-P & D LOG CABIN, FORMATIVE YEARS, PROFESSIONAL LIFE AND PRESIDENTIAL YEARS CENTS PLUS THE BRAND NEW 2010-P & D UNION SHIELD REVERSE CENTS. I ALSO CAME ACROSS A ROLL OF EACH OF THE FOLLOWING SMALL DATE VARIETIES WHICH ARE ADDED TO THIS SET - 1960-D SMALL DATE AND 1982-D ZINC SMALL DATE. AFTER A VERY LONG TIME OF SEARCHING I FINALLY FOUND A NICE SPOT-FREE BRILLIANT UNCIRCULATED BATCH OF 1982-D ZINC LARGE DATES, THE KEY TO THE DENVER MINT 1982 CENT SET. THIS DATE IS NOTORIOUS FOR BEING SPOTTY BUT THESE ARE FAR BETTER THEN AVERAGE. ONE OF THESE WILL BE INCLUDED IN THIS SET AS WELL BRINGING THE TOTAL TO 118 COINS. THE LARGE AND SMALL DATE VARIETIES WILL BE HOUSED IN 2X2 HOLDERS THAT ARE LABELED WITH THE VARIETY SO YOU CAN TELL WHICH COINS THEY ARE. THE COINS WILL BE SHIPPED IN TWO ROLLS READY TO BE DISPLAYED ANY WAY YOU CHOOSE. IF YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING THE PRICES OF LINCOLN CENTS LATELY YOU KNOW THAT THEIR VALUES HAVE BEEN SKYROCKETING IN THE LAST FEW YEARS AND ARE GETTING MUCH TOUGHER TO FIND. THE NEXT FEW YEARS SHOULD BE VERY EXCITING FOR LINCOLN CENT COLLECTORS. 2010 HAS A BRAND NEW REVERSE WITH THE UNION SHIELD, THE OLD LINCOLN MEMORIAL REVERSE WILL NEVER BE USED AGAIN. IN 2009 THE LINCOLN CENT SERIES BECAME 100 YEARS OLD AND IS THE LONGEST RUNNING COIN SERIES IN U.S. HISTORY. CONGRESS PASSED A BILL THAT MADE CHANGES TO THE LINCOLN CENT IN 2009 CELEBRATING THE BICENTENNIAL ANNIVERSARY OF THE BIRTH OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN. THE MINT PRODUCED 4 CIRCULATING COMMEMORATIVE CENTS DURING 2009 THAT REPRESENT DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF LINCOLN’S LIFE: A) HIS BIRTH AND EARLY CHILDHOOD IN KENTUCKY - LOG CABIN; B) H... read more
