Good Luck Debbie... I see the U S Mint Changed the Reverse Design Totally for ABE !!!! Great Inscriptions Now seen There. Where Prior Issues have been Void of Factual Information regarding the Honoring Presidents History. Like they did with Abe !!! Great Design, Great informative Reading Too... PS, The fact the Initials of the designers, Artists w/e, are as Large as they are, Takes away from the Impactful Designs Chosen, WHY the large initials  , 1909 it was so unacceptable VDB was made smaller, The First Years design, NOW

Are the lines on Abe's neck supposed to be there? Part of the design?
I do like this much better than the previous presidential medals.

Tuma !!!!!!!!  Abe showed up Today here Too. I Love the Finish,  ps, I have Another pet peeve with the designs being Highly Detailed Devices Along with Larger than Traditions allow, Initials of the designer's or Artist's, maybe more than one, being as Large as they Are..... I Also See the Word MORGAN Under the Base of the portrait, Guess WHO ? His Actual Drawings of Abe !!!! Love the George T. MORGAN design The U S Mint used...
