    When I first saw the pics I was skeptical if those neons greens and magentas were really there or juiced in, but once in hand they were as vibrant as pictured. I think she'd go 66 if resubmitted, assuming PC accepted her colors. NGC would most likely accept them again. But she stays in the fatty for now :)

    You can see the inside and outside loops of the 0. I thought the jagged marks were from the wreathe, but now I don't know.

    The reverse looks like the egg of the Great Southern Speckled thrush. Very interesting toning pattern, I like it.

    One of my favorite coins, a PL biz strike with rainbow toning. My camera didn't capture all the colors, in hand this coin is amazing:

    Are you utilizing PhotoShop's layer / blending options to create an outer glow on your specimen photos? I ask only because in my humble opinion your specimens are already handsome, without needing to use that feature :)

    Mine may not compare to Lehigh's or robec's, but I still think they are nice.

    I dont have photoshop.I like that little quirky glow,it breaks away from the incuse line from where the coin meets the darkness.it creates a nice glow.I can change it if you dont like it.

    It looks like that in your hand!! its a spectacle.A currency dealer had it.It had been overlooked.I snagged it instantly.the black background accents it.

    I love yours!! I only own two of the Lincoln's I posted (1910 and the first 1916), I was just lucky enough to have photographed the others. With the exception of mine, they have all since went to new homes.

    Wow, so many beaaaaaautiful coins here!!!!!! I wish my pockets were deeper so I could pickup some nice examples. My only one is a circulation wheat find graded 64 by pcgs with some purple, green and electric blue toning on the reverse. I have to wait until I go home for the summer to photograph the coin for you guys!
