I think the evidence of the frontal lobotomy held back the 45-s !

The luster on the back looks impaired as well, but hard to tell for sure from the image. You did well on the other ones though!!

Yea but it is definitly not brown.

It has great luster. My pic only shows the color well, but nothing else.

Nice job Greg! Its been fun sharing a submission.

Greg,

Dont get too caught up in the whole BN/RB thing. These designations mean absolutely nothing on toned coins and I believe the market is realizing this. Many wonderfully toned BN and RB coins are trading for values comparable to REDs. And I'll tell you a little secret also.....they are much more rare.

I couldnt agree more. I have two red brown coins that are graded brown for some reason. I think the graders designate them wrong just for laughs!

Great grades, Greg. Well done!

Congrats, Greg, that's a great submission.

DickyBetz · March 31, 2006 2:25AM

Thanks guys. I think the quarter will pay for the rest of the submission!

No, it is the rare "exit wound variety."

Good stuff when was the order logged in with PCGS?

p8nt · March 31, 2006 3:40AM

Since Greg isnt around I'll tell. It was logged in on 2/8.

NumisOxide · March 31, 2006 3:49AM

I'm kind of surprised the 56 didn't BB. It looks AT even if it is NT.

The 45-S is RB all day long. Heck, the reverse alone looks full RD.

The 56 is a full blown mint set toner and is NT. I was only afraid of the 1937-S BBing, but it didnt . I absolutely agree with you about the 45-S.

Great Job!!! Wish I could do as well.

AZLARRY · March 31, 2006 11:20AM

Some nice looking Lincolns, love that 1956 reverse. You must have a very nice set in the making.

a039 · March 31, 2006 12:06PM

Dicky, I think with the crazy prices on wheats lately Red Brown with mostly red and Brown toners are the values now. I think you did very very good on your submissions. Anything I sent ya? Your set is going to be great and I am very proud of you!
