I just received this lovely 1911 Lincoln Cent. The edges are darker, so I don't think it's been dipped or cleaned, but I'm always on guard with regard to the dreaded "altered color".

However, this looks like a real nice one.

Thoughts?

Only the most minor chatter. 64 R for sure, shot at 65 R.

Very nice looking 1911! Some field distractions but hardly a hit on it. I can see some luster but I can't get a good read on it.

The luster is full on the coin.

Thanks for the responses so far.

I'm getting together a small group of coins to send to NGC and think I'll include this one.

Hm, seems as if I disagree with others. Obverse marks above lincoln's forehead. Reverse 6 o clock chatter. MS63RD imho

I don't think this would make less than 65RD.
