A little choppy on the stairs and that field to the left of Abe. Nevertheless, that is a gorgeous coin and PCGS loves to give good grades to high eye appeal.

Wow, awesome small date toner! I love the green hair!!

PCGS is hard on the red 60's coins. I can't image they would go easy on a RB example either.

I'll guess MS-65 for the grade.

It's not a proof coin, the only proof coins I collect are 1959 P/D CAM/DCAM Lincolns.

Ooooo....it looks much nicer in that picture, surely closer to how it looks in hand I would think. It's a very strong 65RB, nice coin!!

BTW - That green color toning is my FAVORITE! It is in my opinion the rarest toning color for copper. I have many examples similar to your coin.

It is a nice shade of green. Any idea how that color develops on copper?
