Looks really clean, but obv. lettering appears weak, although pictures can do that sometimes.

Like it ! Some weakness on these is normal... if you find any with no weakness & no problems... GET IT SLABBED and make $$ ; )

 

Likey likey from HC.. and at a good price to boot. Couple of spots on the reverse at noon'ish, but this baby explodes with a bit of light,, and is pleasing in ambient also. :devil:

 

I sort of figured there is weakness on many of these and this one is in an NGC MS64 holder...

 

Nice bright color... those spots are certainly NOT the thing that draws the eye that's for sure..~~

 

Didn't even notice the spots until they were mentioned, I had to look for them

 

Here is my newest acquisition

 

I like it. I would have guessed 65. Nice clean cheek, gobs of luster! I'd like to see better photos, though.
Congrats!

I agree with everything he said... looks real clean for a 64.

 

I took a chance on some 64RB Indian head cents.

Mostly happy. I think the 1890 is undergraded. The 1894 has wonderful color and eye appeal but I'd call it a 64- due to the obverse hits. The 1898 has a sweet, lustrous surface but the reverse is BN, IMO.

I discovered some PVC at the reverse rim of the 1890, around 7 o'clock. Drat. Gonna have to send that one back to PCGS for conservation.

What would one expect to pay for such a beauty?

 

I bought this 1912 Matte Proof Lincoln (PCGS PR65 BN) on Saturday ...

 

What a great MPL! I don't blame you for falling for it. I would have!
Lance.

 

Thanks Lance! It's heaven when you find deep color on an MPL.

 

I took a great deal of time comparing about 10 before finally going with this one. So I hope it looks this good when it arrives..

 

That is a real beauty. Congrats!!

 

1920-S MS62 FSB Excellent strike. The 0 in 1920 is nice and sharp. Many 1920's have a weak 0.

 

Wow...just wow!!!

 

Sometimes even the blind dog gets lucky.

 

Here are the sellers pics, I expect it to arrive on Saturday. My first high grade buffalo, great price for the grade, nice looking luster, and graded
