About This Set: This collection is dedicated to my Father William Blake, who was an endless source of encouragement to me my entire life. He would say, "if you're going to do something, associate with good people, and do it right". His advice was sound, and I am grateful to both Brian Wagner and Todd Imhof, as their integrity and knowledge has helped me at every turn. In this collection, some of the finest toned matte proofs in existance have been assembled. All are high end for their grades. My goal was to complete the collection before 2009, the 100th anniversary of the Lincoln Cent series, and I was lucky enough to have made my goal. This is a true honor to my Father, which was my ultimate goal. To all who contributed, thank you.

It’s an unbelievable accomplishment for Duane to have collected the entire set while burdened by such a daunting theme so very quickly. But best of all, it was truly a labor of love. Nicely done!
