So those of you who don't, make sure you look closely at the 70-S and the 70 proof sets.

Nice small date Daniel ! I still don't understand why it seems so hard for people to tell the difference...but maybe having a few in-hand just spoiled me.

Re: 1970-S Lincoln Cent
...that's the problem for a lot of collectors. they just don't have a lot of experience in seeing /finding them in their searching. that's why they really should use all the info they can find to make an accurate determination for themselves. i use many references to be sure, i must admit. widegrinMaineman750 wrote:Nice small date Daniel !
