That is a really sweet 1991, with a nice and clear date. That seems to be a pretty tough year for off center Lincolns. The 1991-D is even more difficult. I have an off-center LMC collection by date and mint mark (still has a lot of holes though). My 1991-D is barely discernible. The last digit nearly got cut off, but there is just enough there to positively identify it. Here's my 1991...  And my 1991-D...  Quote:
... what prices do others see these trade at? It varies greatly. Some dates are easy to get and therefore are pretty inexpensive ($5-20). As always eye appeal plays a big part. Other dates are more rare. I've seen some dates in the LMC series command several hundred dollars. The most I've ever paid for one was $73 and change, which was for a 1970-S. I fully expect to pay more for some of the dates I have yet to acquire. Any significant off-center (more than about 5%) dated after 2001 are quite rare. The Mint installed equipment in 2002 that made it a lot tougher for error coins to get out, though they still manage to escape once in a while. For some reason though, I've seen quite a few dated 2003. |

Nice coin GR58. cwb8539, Great collection, but it will next to impossible to find any dated 2002 or newer because the mint tightened up their quality control and and few if any get out. But non the less good luck with your hunt. John1 |
