Recently I had the privilege and honor of possessing, photographing and creating Accurate View Video™ of a pair of what are (for me) childhood fantasy "pie in the sky" Lincoln varieties. As a young boy I truly fantasized about these Lincolns. Now, 50 years later, I got to hold and play with the finest ever known. Life is a trip! Hope some here will enjoy these tremendous rarities.  The first is the 1955 Doubled Die Obverse in PCGS MS65+RED   The second is the 1922 No D Strong Reverse in PCGS MS65+RB. Note the reverse is just spectacular!   I appreciate the opportunity to share. |

 They sure are fantasy coins. I've never had much drive for the 22 "No D" but that reverse makes it more desirable, to me anyway. Two stories about the 55. I had a girlfriend in high school who said her father put together a roll while working at a gas station in high school! I wasn't into collecting at the time but kick myself now. At the summer FUN show in Orlando this year(2021) I talked with a seller who said he bought a roll marked 1955 from the estate of another well known dealer and they turned out to be the 55 DDO-001 and the lowest grade was VF! BTW- I like the way your video process of coins on your site allows us to see the coins in all their nuanced glory. The slight "rotation" of the tilting visual plane allows the viewer to see all the nuances on the surface of the coins. It seems like this would be a great technique for showing the colorful toning on some coins that are difficult to show with still images. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.

THANK YOU to all the responders....truly this is what makes sharing fun!!!
Great story about the 55 roll...just imagine!
To Petespockets55: Man, thank you for the kind words. We've worked and continue to work very hard on our Accurate View Video™ invention and the most genuine and valued reward we receive is when collectors simply enjoy it. Also, as you, I've never personally had a big drive for the 22 No D as an adult. However I do have a tickle-spot for anything genuinely rare (hell, I think Ford Pinto's are cool now, lol) and it certainly fits that niche. It was really fun to get to handle the coin for a spell. Thanks to the superlative world-class registry collector (and super cool guy) Chad Dubuc for the opportunity!
Happy collecting!

You're very welcome. You have great images on your site. I'm a collector and really appreciate the effort you have put into the site. I know from trying to get decent images to post here how hard it can be sometimes. Some days are better than others but all of your images must be taken on a good day. The clarity of your images is very professional and makes it easy for me to see every nuance on the coin. I've got my eye on a couple of items. With the holidays coming up, who knows what my wife might get me? (Especially if I put my list on her screensaver!  ) Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
