<< <i>Hey Lloyd,
Great pickup! Let us all know what it looks like in hand. And I would LOVE to see bigger more detailed images.
I considered buying this one too (back in October) but was concerned about getting this in a PCGS slab, which is almost always like pulling teeth with toned copper. I did find out from the seller back in October that he submitted it to PCGS for crossing at the 66 grade back in 2009, but PCGS gave it a DNC (Did Not Cross) designation.
The seller then sent it to CAC, where it got a green bean.
If I could have seen larger images of it, I might have bought it anyway. But the images on the ebay listing were just too tiny to see any real detail and the seller said he didnt have any larger photos available. Sort of an odd thing (to me at least) as the first thing I would do with an MPL is ship it off to one of the great photographers to get some nice clear images!!
Anyway be sure to post some better photograps (as I have been curious about this coin for months)!
Do you plan on Trying to get this in a PCGS slab? Perhaps PCGS would cross it if you allowed them to drop it to a 65 level.
If you do manage to get this in PCGS plastic, please get it TrueView photographed (out of the slab) by Phil Arnold and post that image.
This could be a good candidate coin for the 100 Greatest Matte Proof Lincolns website. >>
I had forgotton about your greatest MPLs,and i think the coin is a solid 66BN,any service,i just dont usually play the crossover or upgrade game.Will have other pics done and will keep you posted.Best,Lloyd

I have larger pics, but you sounded like a tire ticker and asked for big discounts so I did not wish to continue dealings with you.

I'd keep it in that slab, not worth it to change it and it's already got a sticker too.

Lloyd, larger pics will be on their way shortly.
You've now set the bar pretty high if you want to continue collecting this series.

First off, totally kickass coin! Nice pick-up, Lloyd!
Secondly, I have dealt with the seller before and Dave (Cohodk) is totally reasonable. Never an issue in the years of dealing with him on the boards.
It is all in how you approach someone and how you present yourself. Wingedliberty....by even getting into what you are getting into, in someone else's thread about the coin, and then to continue by posting private exchanges which have nothing to do with the thread (ie...it should be between you and the seller), you are showing yourself as someone that some folks would not want to do business with and proving Dave's point about avoiding you. I know I would not want to do business with you based on your public interactions I have seen in this thread.
Again, super nice coin!
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

I agree. Dave is a great seller to do business with and he most certainly sold you a sweet coin. I have never been able to buy an MPL yet(and I mean yet), but someday
although, I doubt it will be as sweet as yours.
Again, Congrats on a beauty.
