    Oh yeah, I really like the double profiles. If you end up hating the coin..... I'm a buyer. image After all, her face is all messed up anyway.

    The double profile is interesting. I like the copper toning. Nice addition to your collection.

    I'm not much into varieties, but I love that golden bronze toning. What's it grade?

    Nice, I agree with Eric on the toning....I likey!
    Unlike Eric, I do like that doubling though (course, I am after a 1955 DDO lincoln, so I would like it image )

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    It looks 58 to my eyes and if it has nice luster it's a winner. Now did I mention I'm a very strong buyer?image

    Wonderful coin. Don't know how I missed it! Just great. O-104 maybe??? Can't tell for sure.

    Excellent coin! Looks fantastic and original. I'd be a buyer of that at AU-58.

    Nice picture too!

    Beautiful!! I love your photography skills. I saw a IHC yesterday at my local coin shop with the most wonderful woodgrain toning. First thing I thought about was how beautiful it would look if you photographed it. image

    VERY nice!

    Just FYI, the doubled profiles are not a die variety, nor a doubled die... it is actually strike doubling, but this is one of those rare forms of strike doubling that does bring a premium to the right buyer image

    Says O-107 on the slab. I don't know if that's anything good or not.

    au-58? that's an unusually accurate grade, CONGRATS on a fantastic coin!!!

    i wouldn't consider the profile doubling to be very dramatic on this coin, but it always adds character.
