OK, I'm going to add the 81 T2 to my wish list. Now that I have the 51, I truly only need 2 more coins, the 36 and 81 T2. Last night I got all my non-slabbed proofs into airtites using my acetone procedure, no oxidation/hazing for my coins! YAY!

In the last month I have had around 50 proof Lincolns go through my hands ,,none of which made it into my collection as keeper coins ,,many have already been put back into the market place for those who collect varied colors and less than 68 grade with light or no cameo rim bumps,and hairline patches.

Im kinda picky about my proof coins .well I'm a little picky about my Unc's also but not to the extent Iam with the proof coins !

Im not one to ring my own bell ,,but you should see the Christmas gift I got from a very close and dear forum friend !

Double 60 proof set ,,both large and small date ! I will follow up with pic's when I have the time to do them justice !

My latest acquisition, the 1981 T2. Now, all I need is the 1936 and I'm complete except for the matte proofs.
