History of the Lincoln Penny and celebration of it in 2009
This multi media video was made to accompany a story in the Boston Herald, you can still find the stories by searching Lincolns and coins at bostonherald.com – As a numismatist for more than 40 years I will gladly answer any US coin related questions if you post your email address, whatever you do -DO NOT EVEN ATTEMPT TO CLEAN ANY COIN!!! I have witnessed people reduce a coin worth thousands to about a coin because they wanted to make their coin shiny and clean. Even the slightest cleaning devalues a coin and is detectable by anyone who you might want to sell your collection or coins to. Hope you enjoy the video. Ted
