All was found this year for a wild Whitman Lincoln set.

I was just looking at the December 2012 Pre-1940 Lincoln Tracking Thread and saw that all of the coins were found in the wild this year to make a full Whitman folder. So who would have thought it could have been done. The 1922 Plain was not listed this year but there is no hole and a Whitman or Harris folder.

Tracking threads are great! Special thanks to Country for his work in this area.

Yes. So if you would all just send your finds to me, I will fill a 1909-1940 book with them. Thanks! PM me for my address! ;)

Cool. Has any individual member filled out an album from the wild (in any number years)?
267,500 pennies and 186,000 nickels searched. Hand sorter.
