It looks original to me. Beautiful coin!

I wish my Lincoln's in the teen's and 20's had original mint luster on them.

I don't collect anything even remotely close to this series,

but always marvel at something 100 years old and yet still looks like the day it was made.

Rest in Peace

Thank you for the responses. I won this coin for $5.50. The seller's photos left me wondering if it was original, cleaned or recolored, but I thought I'd take a chance on it.

The seller also was offering a 1910 Lincoln, but I didn't bid on it thinking it was probably a problem coin. Now I am second-guessing myself.

To my eye, brass toned examples look nicer than red / brown toned examples.
I agree with previous opinions on grading.

Looks very similar the the 1930-S I just picked up, which PCGS graded MS-65 RD. So I'll say, drum roll, MS-65 RD! Very nice coin.
