Nothing exciting here. Just Lincolns. BTW, Lincolns are not my favorite non silver coin. They are just my favorite coin. Period.
It looks like a copper cent that has been coated with something (zinc?). It is a little hard to tell exactly what the coating is, but it has...
Yes, I have see where TPG's won't grade copper browns higher than, but the number is 66, not 64.
Sorry, Larry, but you are way off as am I. I would call it a 64 with a good shot at 65. Being an ANACS slab, it should therefore be a 65, right?...
Another not so bright, but it is still grained.
One of them pretty much has to be environmental. Here is another. I believe that the natural is 1:00 - 7:00 on the obverse.
Believe me, I have noticed, but here are the ones I really like.
Shoewrecky moving up to second, but the most consistent one here remains in the lead. Top 10. Columns are rank, name, average, and number of...
For a 1946-, that is a clean well struck coin. It has great luster, but it is not quite what the 1945- has. As for the nicks, it is a bit...
That scratch above the date is very distracting in the picture. In hand, it is puny and very hard to even tell that it is a scratch. There is a...

I managed to catch the reverse, but not quite the obverse. BTW the orange spots are on the coin, but it took me 5 minutes of twisting and turning...
Nmo one else? Then how about teh other side of my 1915-

Actually, it is mostly sulfur (or sulfides) that cause the toning. If you can find it, Lehigh has a thread here that explains all the chemistry.
Reasonable sure that the 1916- has seen either soap or MS-70. It would not surprise me at all if the 1911- has also, but I happen to like that one.
You can't, but a moderator should have before it got this far.
I think you have probably described it relatively accurately, but I will add one to it. If I am not mistaken, Barry is a plant. JMO.
