I've been working on a set of commems with some color. (And ideally in old holders but sometimes that is hard to stick to. Coin > plastic.)
What do you think about this Lynchburg? It's got a look I like. Guess the grade if you'd like. It is CAC approved.

Weakly struck centers and although I like the color the fingerprints kill the coin.
I like it; fingerprints don't bother me on this coin -- in fact, they add character.
66+
I like the deep amber/reddish-gold with the hints of green.
Nice coin.
Depends on the grade, and the premium wanted for the color
The fingerprints aren't too distracting, but if they bother you now you'll always have to make excuses for them.
I like the color, and the fingerprint adds character...... as long as the coin is 65 or lower and there was no premium for the color, you did fine.

I like the overall look of the coin and my grade guess is MS66.

I would guess MS65. But that's a tough one to grade from a photo. I don't like the fingerprints on this one.
Nice original looking coin. Russet color very attractive. It would certainly fill the slot for me.
nice color but no on the fingerprints as well, jmo
Well, I appreciate the comments (after picking my ego up off the floor!). Interesting to see the range of opinions - and I do appreciate the collective experience and opinions of those who posted.
In hand, the prints are less noticeable and even after this thread they don't bother me. Still a coin with character and a keeper for me. Here are the slab shots for grade if you like.
If you have a nice Lynchburg - feel free to post. Thanks!

Late to the game... Thought 65, so was a bit low.....No need to comment on the tarnish...
