biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 09/17/2012 10:46 pm Very nice woody I think you will find that it has alot of deep violet color, I have a 1927P that could be a cousin of your 1920. Report this Post to the Staff

cwb1877 Pillar of the Community United States 1659 Posts	Posted 09/17/2012 11:52 pm I love it! It appears to have luster. I'd say it's likely MS. Report this Post to the Staff

SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 09/18/2012 3:47 pm Beautiful looking 'wood grain' Lincoln, looks like a MS-63/4 to me. Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 09/19/2012 12:05 am I had a hard time capturing the violet but it is in the darker brown areas. Report this Post to the Staff
SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 09/19/2012 06:05 am WOW.. Great looking coin, Bio. Report this Post to the Staff
Dave H Pillar of the Community United States 1436 Posts	Posted 09/19/2012 06:55 am Bio, awesome coin. Gotta love the woodgrain look of these cents. One thing I noticed in the picture of the 1920 is that it looks like the "R" in LIBERTY is bigger than the rest of the letters... Any thoughts on what may have caused that to occur? Looking forward to seeing it in hand to see if that really is what I'm seeing Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19964 Posts	Posted 09/19/2012 07:40 am Quote: Any thoughts on what may have caused that to occur? It's an optical illusion because the aspect ratio is completely off in the picture. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
Dave H Pillar of the Community United States 1436 Posts	Posted 09/19/2012 09:21 am BadThad,thanks for the info. It's funny how our eyes play tricks on us w/ coins... seeing things that aren't there. I'm gonna check anyways when it gets here tomorrow Report this Post to the Staff
SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 09/19/2012 09:40 am Hi, Dave.. If you could post a pic of the 1920 straight on would be able to tell more. Report this Post to the Staff

Dave H Pillar of the Community United States 1436 Posts	Posted 09/21/2012 9:46 pm The cent arrived today and I am thrilled. It is actually much lighter than the picture shows and has tons of rolling luster on both sides. There is a lot of ruby & some darker purple toning on the obverse, and some darker purple in the streaking on the reverse... but not too much to distract from the overall beauty of the coin.
