1960-D Lincoln straight out of Roll...AT or NT????

Well I finally decided to go through some of my BU rolls I purchased approximately 8 to 10 years ago. I don't know that any of the rolls are original bank wrapped rolls, but they have certainly been in their beat up paper homes for quite some time. Since 1960-D Small date Lincolns aren't particularily valuable, I though I would start with that roll.

Some of the coins had some decent toning and one in particular on the end with the Memorial Reverse facing out had some really nice purple, green, pink and blue toning. I have not mastered scanning coins as of yet so I have a hard time accurately representing the true colors, but here is a Obverse and Reverse picture of the coin. I have no reason to believe it's AT since it came out of an older roll, but..........since it's not an original roll I thought I would let you folks give me an opinion as to it's originality.

Thanks

I am not planning on submitting this coin, I am just looking for some experience in what to look for AT vs NT.

  • copper does turn that purple on the obverse, and the overall toning looks weird enough to look real... only a guess though...

  • It is air transfer toning and IMO PCGS would grade it and give you a 65RB on the grade. Nice looking coin, I have seen quite a with very similar colors/toning.

    Bad pic but OK colors.
  • Obverse is nice and naturally toned. I agree with clackamas, PCGS would give it a grade and RB.

    I don't think so. These exhibit the same toning patterns as the one posted and both were slabbed by PCGS. I also have 2 others with end roll toning but on the reverse that are going to PCGS soon.

    The obverse looks great- I would be curious what the colors on the reverse toning really look like- looks perfectly NT to me, but I also know very little about copper........
