I'm coming up on 10,000 posts and 15 years with CCF! I want to give away a few items in a contest. All of the pictured items, and probably a couple more pieces, to the winner.

My first collecting experience was in the early 1970's when I filled a few Lincoln Cent boards from circulation finds. I still have these boards in a closet.

Guess the year and minkmark of the first Lincoln Cent in the first book. Example: If you think I found a 1909-S in circulation then just type 1909-S as your reply/entry. Contest will end on 01/08/23.

One entry per member. I the event of a tie, the first member to reply with the correct date wins. Due to mailing expenses I am limiting the contest to U.S. mailing addresses.

Good luck and thanks CCF for a great forum.

10 & 20 centavos Cuban silver pieces, a PCGS slabbed Presidential dollar, a nice 1950-D nickel, several Buffalo nickels and a BU Red roll of 1965 Canadian cents will be included.

Congrats on your counts. I'll say it a 1917 P which was the oldest I ever found in circulation in the late 70's.
