This is the most beautiful Toned Lincoln I have ever owned. The line running N-NE from the E in LIBERTY is a die scratch Sorry for the photo overload, just love this coin that much lol.

Out of all of them only two were useful to me as a grader. If you want to show off the toning - learn how to angle your camera and/or light and take full coin pictures. The close-ups are just annoying unless we're looking at a variety. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19977 Posts	Posted 01/01/2020 03:49 am Example to show the color with the whole coin. All I do is some angle work - no post-processing except to resize. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18729 Posts	Posted 01/01/2020 11:51 am I agree with you on the toning. I'm not a fan of toning but this is even across the surfaces and enhances the coin. this one may not be worth slabbing unless it comes back at 65 or higher. I think its MS64+. sharp strike on both sides, very minor abrasions and the nice toning I think are better than a 63 coin Report this Post to the Staff
