So these are my nicest 1974s ... my favorite is the Philadelphia minted Penny.
Does anyone see anything interesting about these coins? 1974 Lincoln Cents

Can't really see anything out of the ordinary except how nice they look. Do you think the '74s is a proof? -
Those are nice looking for 44 years old... The pics blurr a little to much for me to tell if they are large or small dates http://www.lincolncentresource.com/s...malldates.htmlJim

Nice looking 74's! Your photos are very good, but when I tried to zoom in the pic got blurry. You can compare yours to the doubled die and RPM listings here. Just type in the date and MM. Also there is a photo of a 74 large date so you can see the difference.

Also, the Philly one.. I like those with stripes too! I once thought that anything with stripes was from an improper alloy mix and the nick name for those is "woody" but Mike Diamond recently wrote an article in Coin World, that explains that the cause of some of these stripes is not fully understood and could actually... in some cases... be from dirty rollers that flatten the metal.
