Charmy's Toned Lincoln NEWPS!!!

ThePennyLadyThePennyLady Posts: 4,499 ✭✭✭✭✭
Also just got these from Todd - these are some of the pretty toned Lincoln cents I picked up recently so I thought I'd share them here before I put them away! I know the 1927-S is only MS62 which is below what I usually collect, but it's so hard to find these that look nice (mostly due to their typical weak strike), and I think it has a really pretty look and is a little undergraded. And I already had a pretty 1972 double die that has this same look and color, but I liked this one a little better than my other one.

    Probably the same reason the 1956 got the same grade with all those specks and marks on the reverse and the ones in the field on the obv..... subjectivity, yada yada.

    The '57 and '27S both got generous grades.

    Guess you're either not a fan of NGC or you don't know much about weakly struck Lincolns. As I mentioned, 1927-S was a commonly weakly struck coin, and is definitely uncirculated.

    Actually it's a late die state. The strike is above average.

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    Oh please. You know you bought the plastic on the 27s, 56 and 57.

    I wasn't picking on her in fact I was supporting her. FYI- The wink is for sarcasim . I was referring to the fact the coin is a doubled die reverse thus "the blurry" comment.
    It also tied into the fact I thought others were being a little picayune.Thus, a double entendre. Of course that is just my opinion. Don't you have some bad videos to shoot or something?image

    I'm willing to bet the pricing on a 57 in 66 ain't that big of a deal due to how common the coin is likely in upper grades. But that coin ain't no 66...it might even deserve a 64. The grader was probably ready to go home at the end of the day when he got to that coin.

    Guess you don't know me very well, otherwise you'd know that I buy coins specifically for their toning and look, regardless of the holder and sometimes regardless of the grade.

    No, I have some good videos to shoot though. image

    It's sometimes hard to tell sarcasm from a bold statement. Guess I missed it.

    You know, I was wondering when someone on this forum would get around to using that line! image I was around 16 when that tp came out and was working in an after school work program on our local Naval base among a bunch of young SeaBees. Their office was right across the hall from mine. One morning when I got to my desk, the SeaBees had covered my entire desk with tp and the Charmin packaging, and posted a big "Please don't squeeze the Charmin" sign on the front of my desk. My boss was not very happy. Fast forward many years later.... Before I met my husband, I dated a few guys, one of whom was named..... yep, Mr. Whipple! Well, thank goodness that one didn't last long!

    Nice coins. You buy some nice colorful coins!

    I have bought a lot of 62's and in the past i have cracked them and sent them back in to be graded. I would say 80 percent came back in 63 holders and 1 went to a 58. 2 stayed in 62 holders. To me a 62 is just a strange grade.

    image Guess "Something Must be in the Air" cause "Yer So Bad." Besides, you're just "A Face in the Crowd," so come on, "Don't Do me Like That" and don't be so "Hard on Me" and my coins! I think my coins are "Alright for Now" and "I Won't Back Down" from posting my pretty copper since some of the colors remind me of pretty "Wildflowers." In any event, I'm just "A Woman in Love" who "Listens to Her Heart" when it comes to coins! But perhaps you'll have "A Change of Heart" when you see this beautiful piece that rocks me like "A Stranger in the Night"! image

    p.s. For folks who missed it, my husband and I are getting tickets to see Tom Petty during the Long Beach show in early June and since Rick Snow is a fan too, I offered to get him a ticket so he could go with us. But since he made "certain comments" about my Large cent in this THREAD, I had to.... well, let's just say that blackmail is a strong word, but you get the drift!

    Big fan of the 1956. An interesting study would be to see if my reaction to that coin is in anyway related to my childhood love of rainbow sherbert. Just throwing it out there. Favorite Ice Cream = Favorite Coins.
