I finally had a chance to finish off my Lincoln set.
Buying all of the keys and semi-keys that I was missing.
I have been wanting to have a complete set since I started
collecting as a kid, now about 30 years later, my set is complete.



I picked them all up as a package deal, and
had to settle for a couple of minor issues with
a couple of the coins, guess that just means I need
to look for upgraded ones for them.


1909s
1909s vdb
1912s
1914d
1922 plain
1924d
1931s
1970s small date

plus I picked up the
1955 DDO
1972 DDO

Here's the 1909s vdb

Congratulations! I'm also working on that set. I still need quite a few. As far as the keys are concerned, I have a 31s but that's it. I'm working on it though.

Not a bad price for a 09S-VDB, 55DDO, 72 DDO and if it came with the rest (09S,14D,31S,24D) a really good deal. That is how I completed my set at first, I bought complete sets and picked out the ones I wanted then sold them off.

Congrats, gormang, What a nice set of Lincolns.

Yeah, I'm missing 3, the 1909S/ 1909S VDB and the 1914D

I'll pick them up one of these days, I hope.
