TBT Comes Through with Another Great Coin

Bryan offered this great Lincoln on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=803883484

I like this coin because it mates high grade (MS67 is a tough grade for any Lincoln from the sixties) with wonderful color!
Thanks TBT. You offer killer coins! (I couldn't Paypal this one quick enough!)

    That's a great looking cent. I wonder what its story is, how it came to look like that?

  • It's pretty but I just don't get it. Finding that color on a COMMON 1957-d 1c is little more interesting than finding that color in an oil puddle in the middle of the street.

    Wha wha wassthis?! You mean you actually bought a BEAUTIFUL COIN? What's wrong with you Braddick!? Are you feeling ok? Imean, This isn't the braddick I've come to know .. buying nice coins instead of the PO1 stuff. Please tell me this isn't a trend!image

    Just kidding!! Nice coin, even if it isn't a PO1! image

    Not a PO1, but a POP1 (just looked it up). image

    agentjim007 brings up an interesting point. It always seems these common coins, like this one or an 1881-S Morgan, or a number of common date Franklins or Washingtons, all have the attractive toning while it is rare that a Key Date does.

    It would be fun to research that.

    that lincoln is really a super eye appealing fantastic technically graded coin!! and for me

    great toning makes a coin really nice to own and also great toning on a rare date is the ultimate!

    like this coin in the attatchment a 41-s walker in ms 66 ngc with a thick skin besides the rainbow and an above average strike, and exceptional eye appeal a solid 66 also...... with rainbow being desirable and rare

    any thick skinned original eye appealling toning on a walker any date looking like this is rare! and simply incredible on a 41-s!!!!!!!!!!! if not the finest looking in any 66 holder then one of a very few!!

    or this 36 satin proof ngc 67 buff

    if not the best toned one of a very few that are this nice! and in person this is much bettere than the scan suggests!

    I thought this coin was offered a few weeks ago as a nor reserve auction? Maybe TBT had two coins like this?
  • gmarguligmarguli Posts: 2,225 ✭✭
    Nope, same coin cert number. Last time the auction was cancelled 5 days into it. imageimageimage
