Lincoln Bicentennial Cents

As I've now recently gotten into numismatics in a itsy bitsy teeny weeny way, I found that United States have or rather had released these One Cent coins called as Lincoln Bicentinnal cents. These are a set of four coins that depicted his birth and early childhood in Kentucky, his formative years in Indiana, his professional life in Illinois, and his Presidency in DC. I thought they looked cool and a probable must have for any numismatist.

If any of you guys in the States have these or know where one can get, it you be great if you could pass them to me. Of course, I'm willing to pay a small sum of fee for if its a reasonable price.

Wishlist : US Quarters America the Beautiful

This is the list or rather images of the Quarter cents that I'm looking to add or build my collection. As I have now started asking some friends for their help in completing the collection, I thought of creating this blog so that they know what is missing and what they need to look out when they get any coins from their purchases in any shop.

I'm sure if you know some of the stores well enough, they should oblige in you having a dekho at their coins and take away some of them away for me.

Happy hunting and collecting :)
