I can only imagine how awesome this coin is in hand!

This coin is awesome. One of the nicest 1957-P that I've seen. I would take this one over any of the 4 figure 67RD's.

    Looks rather pukey to me.

    The surfaces are very clean, and the image definitely looks overexposed, but I wonder about the eye appeal in-hand.

    I imagine this coin is phenomenal in-hand. But I'd have to see it in-hand before I'd shell out more than $100.

    High bids, but I think he hurt himself by insisting it's mostly red. PCGS just doesn't give out 67rb's, I've only seen a couple, no pops given of course, but is doesn't seem, in the poor images, to be mostly red, especially the reverse. Bigger money IMO for greens, blues with some orange or deep red. Rainbow, in other words.

    I'd be laughing if I lost that nuclear war. Locked up in a padded room for bidding, but happy. image

    I thought it was a very nice coin and in hand I imagine much nicer than the pics. I have no idea what it is really worth, but IMHO it is much more attractive than a "red" coin.

  • If restricted to choose among Lincolns I would instead use my $690 more wisely on one of the earlier dates.
