These type of Lincolns usually come from a OBW roll that had a red penny roll wrapper, at least the ones in the sixties, I have run across several in the older red and white wrapper but these are from the seventies. At least that's what I have noticed. Just curious?

Looks to be more RB to me. I was expecting to see full brown like this - I'll contribute to the thread:

Beauty! I'd honestly rather have a Lincoln that looks like that than a red. I've been told before that I'm in the minority in that preference.

Maybe not brown but several bu teen PCGS coins I have purchased say brown on the slab that look like this. Would you agree that PCGS is pretty tight on their color designation? Although I totally agree with you on the red/brown color this coin is sure headed to full brown. Probably another 40 years from now but it will get there.

( I'm no pro, it's just my humble opinion )
Searched 6.5 +/- Million Cents Since 1971


I agree John1 I want one to be chocolate brown so bad, I close my eyes and just imagine these coins are. Unfortunately, when I open my eyes back up, the coins are this color. Maybe on the windowsill for 20 years they will get that color, but I won't live that long. I only have 6 million more pennies to search to catch up.
