I know I'm being picky, but I would like to point out one small correction that needs to be made to some locked data.

The Lincoln cents KM#132 and KM#201 commemorate Abraham Lincoln's birth in 1809, not his death in 1865.

Hi, it's done now. However, when I'll go over these files again, I don't think I will let it be mentionned in the commemorative field. It was true for the very first issue of 1909, but the series lasted for so long that I think it should rather be mentionned in the description field.

Yes, true. My catalogs still mention all of this series as commemorating Lincoln.
Well...
Same applies for Roosevelt Dimes btw.

And the Washington quarter too. It was intended to be a single-year issue to commemorate him, but it was so popular that it stayed the same for nearly 80 years.
