It is quite an unbelievable coin, and a date that is near impossible to find with any color, let alone like this. It is a freak. I am really fortunate that I had the opportunity to acquire it for the collection.
Some refer to overgraded slabs as Coffins. I like to think of them as Happy Coins.
I try to focus on the early dates but my local B&M got this 1935 in an album and he gave it to me. Said he can now say he finally added to my Lincon collection, knowing the stuff I’m into never comes in his door. Sent it in with a group so it would get in a protective slab. Guess a red reverse makes it red and brown? Not sure if that describes the coin but it’s still a blast of green that is attractive, IMO.
Rather than starting a new thread, I'll just post it here. Here's my latest acquisition. I can honestly say, the trueview pic is somewhat of a disappointment compared to the coin. It's dripping with luster.

Wonder if that was the 66RB I've been eyeing...
Beauty!

1940,1941,1942 brothers. Snagged the 41 off ebay for cheap just so id have a pretty neat triplet set
I really love the 1942. Great pickings.

Another one on its way ... I couldn't stand not having a nice SVDB around. This one is a 65"BN" PCGS-CAC example.
Kind regards,

Toned Lincolns are not my thing overall, but I have one or two lying around.

@abcde12345 Well, I would say that coin is arranged very nicely in the slab ...

Spectacular toning on a MS that reminds me of toning on some of the great MPL Lincolns. Special coin.
OINK
Both MS65BN

This coin is absurdly nice. Why is it only a 64?
Hopefully PCGS will think better of it.
