Cotton candy toned cent

I've seen a few of these purple/blue toned cents over the years but this one is up there on my list. If you were pricing this to sale on Ebay where would you put it? It's always hard for me to price these toned coins.

    Nice color on that one.

    Start it at one cent, and watch it blast off. Beautiful cent!

    I'd also show a full slab photo as many bidders want to confirm the Trueview isn't just a glamour shot.

    Many years ago, a board member 'created' cents that looked like the one posted above. Pass.

    Very pretty coin, but 1961 was a year that produced many, many nicely toned specimens. I think it is a keeper because you will not get enough money for it to make you happy.

    All it takes are two bidders who disagree with you.

    I have a 69 Proof cent in my Dansco that has a reverse similar to that one. Obverse is completely untoned.

    Pretty coin, should bring a decent price.

    1961 was a great year for colorful proof Lincoln’s.
