Beautiful Coin, and yes I understand that the Observe color is questionable, coins in a flip and not graded, what do you think BU-64?   |

Color on Abe's head seems a tad bit dull, marks in circle give me pause. I'm certainly no expert so this could be in my head but those two spots coupled with dullness appearance around head has me questioning this example. It's still a nice coin but determining a FMV is tough on this one.  Edited by SomeGoodCents

the fine chit marks on the shoulder and lapel are die related as well as most of them above ONE CENT on the reverse. these are very typical
it difficult to assess the surfaces properly in a holder as they can alter what we are seeing as light reflects off the surfaces so those areas you marked I cant say if they are rub areas with missing luster. the lower half of the reverse photos is all in shadows and thats why coins should be removed from the holders when possible.

The coin is photoed in a coin holder.
Maybe that is why some may have concern do to that.

I just can't get good enough pics without USB Microscope. Just pulled the trigger on new scope, give me a week and I'll get back with better pics. Until then I'd prefer to leave it secured in flip.

I trust what they said in reference to grading. I think maybe you may need to change the storage if you intend on holding on to it. The color maybe changing do to what it's stored in and for how long it's been stored in it, and where your are keeping it. Don't get me wrong it's a lovely 59.

Nothing wrong with the color at all, normal cent.
MS-64, maybe 65 if it looks good in hand.
