1911 Matte Proof Lincoln (PCGS Secure Plus PR65BN) w. Color (PCGS Cert # 27354729)
eBay Auction ends Sunday July 7th
Subtle but very smooth obverse color (shades of emerald green, salmon pink, and sky blue). Practically spot free (unlike many other 1911 MPL's).
This is a rare coin with only 376 TOTAL PCGS-graded 1911 Matte Proof Lincolns cataloged (in all color classes). In the Brown (BN) color class, there are only 31 PCGS PR65BN 1911 MPLs cataloged, and only 12 graded higher.
This coin was formerly in an NGC PF65BN slab, which was Green CAC Stickered, which means this coin has met CAC's (Certified Acceptance Corporation's) stringent grading standards and is in the upper (higher) portion of the PR65 grade level. The old NGC label will be sent to you with the coin. So this would be "rubber stamped" by CAC for another green sticker since it crossed to PCGS at the same grade (as long as you submitted this coin to CAC with the old NGC label so that CAC could verify the coins heritage).
Prior to being in the NGC slab, this coin was in an older PCGS slab (Cert #20549876).
The large photos shown are re-sized Max TrueView photos shot at PCGS with the coin out of the slab, which enables optimal viewing. Multiple TrueView photos were shot of this coin at various lighting angles showing all the various "looks". Also shown are photos of this coin in the old NGC slab with the green CAC sticker, as well as in the current PCGS Secure Plus slab where it resides today (PCGS Secure Plus Cert #27354729).
Note that this coin is fairly dark and matte looking in hand, however the color is apparent in the slab. At certain lighting and viewing angles (especially out of the slab) the coin pops more gloss. It is very clean and practically spot free, which sets it apart from the typical 1911 Matte Proof Lincoln.
