    The color looks off to me.

    Abrupt color shift and spotting under LIBERTY worry me.

    I think the chance of grading is slim.

    I think it could grade... I doubt it is worth the effort. It is a decent coin but I doubt it goes higher than 66

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    Given some of the toned Lincolns I have seen from that time frame yes I think it could grade, if you had asked should it grade that is a different answer.

    Reverse looks like a normal double mint set 57D.

    Obverse looks too glossy to be real, but maybe it's the image. I have some wacky toned 57D's graded favorably by PCGS.....

    Coppercolor, what grades are yours? I took the pictures with my cell phone. the coin in hand does not look glossy.

    And, THIS



    << <i>AT and no it will not grade >>



    is why you should send it in image


    First picture and I was like "1957 double mint set Lincoln"....I scrolled down and was right.
    Pictures could easily be off.....it could easily grade (or not) but too hard to tell just from the picture. As Coppercolor says, there are more than a few that have graded with similar colors from those 1956/1957/1958 double mint sets (and others), but particularly the 1957 like that.

    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

    Both are PCGS 66BN.

    The difference according to the picture, between yours and mine, is the appearance of yellowing in the center of the obverse. IF that's actually there then it might be a stretch to grade.

    The number to be concerned about,if you believe book of Revelation,is "666" not "6666." The serial number,24706666,is good to go.Display the coin without fear.
