1992-D Lincoln Cent PCGS MS68RD


This one might be going into somebody's registry set. It's a MS-68 1992-D Lincoln Cent. Are you into building a Registry Set? Of course, these conditional rarities are manufactured, and it will depend on your perspective. Some of you will say $32.01 is way too much to pay for a modern cent coin, and some will say "it's just $32.01, we spend more than that to fill our gas tank, or go to a ballgame. To each his own.

1931-S US Lincoln Cent PCGS MS 63 RED - Very Nice Indeedy!


Check out this gem. A nice date, 1931-s, but in this condition! Drool! According to the seller it has "A single small carbon spot on Lincoln's shoulder kept this coin out of the extremely difficult MS65 or higher grade. Still, a beautiful, natural bright red coin that is a key to the series." I think I could overlook the flaw for a coin this grade on that date. What about you? Here's a link to the auction.

1914-D Lincoln Cent - Is it really an XF?


Well, this is an interesting auction, even if the seller doesn't do too well with writing.  He tells us that "The Reverse has AU+ qualities including wheat lines and some original luster!!!" and that's about it.  I like the coin though.  Have a look at the auction here.
