Sort of... It's a 1914p Lincoln, but it's BN not Red. Here are the semi quick pictures I took.

Nice grade with what appears to be slight toning on the reverse. Congrats!

This coin has superb eye apeal so I'm not totally surprised (but I am). There's a greenish hue on the front, with deep brown under that. The reverse does have some blue tones coming through. It also has some red on the reverse as well

Now you won't be able to solder on a D.
Nice coin.

Wow I really like that one. I am quite jealous to say the least.

I have no concept why, but people would rather pay $4000 for a 66RD and watch it turn in the slab than pay $500 for a gloriously-toned 66BN and have an exquisite coin for the rest of history. Like this one. |

Next Baltimore coin show I'm going to shop it around. If it had been a 65 I wouldnt, but since its a 66 I can turn this into a few really nice nickels or coins for my 7070. That being said, I'd have a hard time taking less than 500 for it. A RB coin seems to be selling for about 700ish. If you could see this one in hand, the eye appeal is amazing with the coin almost looking fake it has so much luster. Plus the toning in hand is unreal.

Well if I had that kind of cash oh hand I would pick it up without even blinking an eye. I agree with SsuperDdave I would much rather have one with great color over a red one.
Like I said I don't have $500 but could I interest you in an arm or a leg?

Funny enough my right arm is in a cast from surgery. I too dont have $500. I was hoping this could be a $200ish coin to keep since I dont collect lincolns, but $500 would fill a few holes in some of my Dansco's.
