I picked up the following

2 1964 Kennedys $7.00
1954 S Franklin $4.25
1954 P Franklin $4.25
1958 P Franklin $4.25
1958 D Franklin $4.25

Incomplete Indian Head Cent collection
1879, 1881, 1883, 1885, 1887, 1888, 1889, 1890, 1891, 1892, 1893, 1894, 1895, 1896, 1897, 1898, 1899, 1900, 1901, 1902, 1903, 1904, 1905, 1906, 1907, 1908, 1909
$25.00

I don’t know if the Indian Heads were a good deal or not, but they are in pretty good shape.

The Whitman folder they came in list 1864 with an “L”. Is L the mint mark or does it mean large date? If it’s a mint mark where was the mint?

Thanks.

L is just the designer's initial. For that year there were 2 versions one with and one without the L. It's behind the ribbon.

Very nice on the IHPs. Less than a dollar a piece is good for lower condition ones, so if they are a little better, then you made a good find.

Democracy is being allowed to vote for the candidate you dislike least.

Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and then beat you mercilessly with experience.

Nice score, looks like you got good deals all 'round!
Chalk another one up to being at the right place at the right time.
