Stujoe's FEC retains the UCC champion title once again. This week's challenger is another worthy opponent. Mark Stilson's plagued Lincoln Cent must have spent some time in a less than hospitable place. Which one is uglier: the partialy digested FEC or the plagued Lincoln cent?

Once again, I am voting for the challenger. The wet, squishy looking zombies are always grosser than the dried up looking zombies. :ninja:

The flying eagle is a recognizable coin, recognizable date, denomination, and even a hole to be filled for your album! The Lincoln cent, on the other hand, trusts in god and little else!

Wow. Now that is a worthy challenger to the FEC. So worthy, I'm having a horrible time making up my mind. I mean, up to now, my main criterion has been whether or not I could form an educated guess as to what happened to the coin. Now that has to be used against the FEC... 'partially digested' is at least a theory, and I have no idea what happened to that Lincoln. I can't even tell if it's a Wheatie or a Memorial! So, apologies to Stujoe and his long-suffering eagle, I have to at long last jump ship. I mean, President Lincoln himself is currently in better condition than Mark's penny!

There is absolutely nothing redeemable about that Lincoln cent, so it got my vote.
