One cool 1909 PR65 *Brown* (Sunday night '1909' comparisons). Bring them out!

Ambro-you like rims! Here is a Tru-View 1909 with some serious rims..... Cooler yet, the obverse is a nicely-toned brown with 4 or 5 distinct colors in the mix. But the reverse is 95% mint red, with rim toning around the entire circumference of the coin. Whether the slab says "BN" or "RB"; it's just a cool coin. Thank you Dave Kelly!

Speaking of 1909s, why are brown 1909s so scarce? (only 35 BN PCGS-certified 1909s, and 32 BN PCGS-certified 1916s; this makes the 1909 and 1916 BNs almost numerically identical!

Why is that, illustrious matte heads?

1909 PR65RB (i dont know where they see any brown, looks Red Brassy to me)

1909 PR63RB (not as flashy, but very granular, I like that)

1909 PR65RD (redder than this pic, with some violet and blue toning on the lower left field)
