How Can This Be

[Guest]

I just received my Lincoln cents from the mint the other day.Upon looking at them they all have a proof like appearance,if these are business strike coins. Could it be new die's or just the luck of the draw.Maybe some of you Lincoln wizards could explain this to me.Thanks Art.

Do you have pics? Is it the coin having a mirror like finish or does the design have a cameo appearance? The last few years Lincolns have come out having rather shiny coins and others that appear more matte...

I don't have any photos yet but will have soon,it does seem to have a cameo finish to them not ultra sharp,but darn near proof like.It would be very hard for me to grade them.
