The most boring coin of 2009, not that it would have been easy to jazz it up a little. Lincoln is just too overexposed, even for a 200th birthday. But still….
Ratings:Love the mole…shows him as a human being with defaults. However we all know that lincoln was a master orator and his ability to rise above himself and think of his fellow country men and there future….was a defining point indeed for the USA, as well as mankind as a whole. Democracy or Slavery that was the question…we know the answer.
With all do respect I thank you President Abraham Lincoln

As little as I care for Lincoln, this is a fairly well done coin. The greatest American spin master of the 18th century. Glad to see “under God” in the quote - many now argue it was added later. Too many of these will sell to be a very good investment.
