Archraz Pillar of the Community United States 3499 Posts	Posted 08/20/2012 3:03 pm I hope that these pics are not too blurry. I am a bit uncertain if these wheats are unc or AU with some luster. It should be noted that the obverse of the 1945 shows more luster in hand than in the pic. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

Archraz Pillar of the Community United States 3499 Posts	Posted 08/20/2012 7:17 pm acloco- Hmm, honestly, I have never pondered this "S" too much. Are there any known varieties for the 1950 S? Report this Post to the Staff

Archraz Pillar of the Community United States 3499 Posts	Posted 08/20/2012 11:36 pm BadThad- Thanks for the input! Honestly, I am a tad surprised since the 1945 really is 95% brown on the obverse, and the 1950 is actually a little bit darker than the image indicates. But I am happy to hear that they both appear to have the details of an Unc despite having dark/ almost no luster. Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19973 Posts	Posted 08/21/2012 12:07 am It's simply a result of their age. Most coins are improperly stored and handled over their lives....that's what happens. With these, look at the fields and devices, they are very nice....almost no hits. Lincoln Cent Lover!
