A seller on ebay put up a listing for a "gem" coin, correctly attributed as RPM-001. Clicking in he had 7 of them for sale, buy as many as you want for $37 each. Only one coin was shown full obverse and reverse, so six were a mystery. But the one shown was at least MS64 maybe 65. Seemed like a low price for what is a pretty rare die, so I bought them all. This is the nicest of the lot, although another one is about the same. Worst one would probably go 64. Top two are 65 with a shot at 66. Pretty happy with the buy, and the two best will be going to PCGS.

Sorry about the somewhat bizarre colors. The coin is a typical RD color, but my camera was still color balanced to photograph the quarter from yesterday so it really made this Lincoln look odd. Always check your camera settings!

Thanks folks! And I'll be sure to post the grade once they come back. Which of course will be a while.

Lovely looking cent and beautiful separation. What happened to the 8 in the date? Looks like it took a partial hit but there are no corresponding marks in the adjacent fields.

@silviosi - read TB's thread again, he purchased all 7 of these. You might be able to make a deal with him for one or a few.

Very Smart move.
Probably couldn't hit the "Send Payment Now" button fast enough! LOL
