I got back into it seriously in the last 18 months. A few months ago I was given an old jar of pennies. I am not sure what to make of this poor Lincoln. I have seen many squeeze jobs over the years, and that was my first impression. But it is missing a lot of the edge compression and other giveaways. I keep looking at this every week or so, and I decided today to ask for the Community's opinions. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. I apologize for so many pics, but I wanted to be thorough. Thanks, Old Hare Report this Post to the Staff
