I would expect nothing less from BadThad! I seems like he is the penny king on this forum!

Those are nice BadThad, but I have all the same ones that I have pulled from rolls or out of bulk lots over the years. They are worn a little, some more than others. They have character, yours do not. I am willing to do you a very big favor. I know that this sounds very selfless of me to make this offer but that is the kind of guy I am. So here is the deal  . I will send you mine and you will send me yours. Then you will have some Lincolns that you can really be proud of  . But really they are some sweet looking coins, and I love the air-tite 2x2 combo. I am gonna steal that idea and use it here on my stuff. Thanks for sharing man    .

Some are roll finds, but most are just from my hard searching at shops and coins shows. One of my favorite coins is in the above shot, my 1931-D. This coin eluded me FOREVER, trying to find a red, high-grade example is nearly impossible unless you want to go to HA.com and pay $1000+ for a slabbed one. I absolutely ripped this coin from a dealer who didn't care about it, in fact, it was the ONLY Lincoln he had in his display case. He was so busy shooting the breeze with another dealer, I even talked him down on it. LOLOLOL

Here's a shot from my Memorial binder. You can see why I like my storage system. In this picture I have prime examples, errors, mint sets and toners. I intentionally leave about 4-5 spaces open on each page so I can add easily. I learned the hard way! My first go around with this I mistakenly filled ALL of the slots. When I needed to add a coin, I had to move EVERY blasted coin down one. DOH!

These are the starting Memorial coins. With this system I can group RPM's in there too!  \

I cut and put together a picture of what I call my 1909 VDB "grade set". I have one example of each general grade, from MS to G.
