I known its says the mint never minted any proof lincolns in 1944. What would be the chance that that is a fib? I think I have one. Too shiney and mirror fields. Beat up abit since it was in circulation, and no it hasn't been polished, since it shines right up through the base of all lettering...

OK using a digital camera in macro mode I can go from 1.0 to 4.0 zoom. How much zoom should I use for the best photos of coins?

I am trying to figure out a good way to get an 8 year old boy into collecting? Opinions would be nice. Is 8 to young? I started myself at 10 when I was better able to appreciate history. Any one develop a successful technique. I bought over ebay a partial set of Washington quarters and I figure...

I just received my seconded order of all three marine choices. The proof, unc and the American Legacy. I'll sale you the proof for $100.00 plus shipping. I'm sure it will increase in value as it already has.
