l.cutler Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 (edited) I don't see any proof characteristics on either of these coins. Edited April 26, 2020 by l.cutler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Henslee Posted April 26, 2020 Author Share Posted April 26, 2020 Just now, Justin Henslee said: Are these pictures better for die Mark's. Thanks for looking I'm really doing my research. I read Kevin flynns book and did my homework. But peer review is the best. I'm probably just being hopeful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coinbuf Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 (edited) Sorry but the coin/coins you have posted are not matte proofs, not even close. None of the correct markers are evident in your photos. Edited April 26, 2020 by Coinbuf Johnny Reed Collection 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VKurtB Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) Any advice? Sure. Look up Carl Waltz in Millersville, Pennsylvania. He wrote, and self-published, THE key work on Matte Proof Lincoln’s. If Carl doesn’t know it, it isn’t known. He repeatedly wins top awards for his original research at ANA conventions. He’s an odd personality, but hey, in this hobby, who isn’t? Also, work with the best specialist dealers out there, like Angel Dee’s.
