I am going a little conservative and say MS64RB but it is still as cool as the other side of the pillow.
So I dug up some of my toned Lincolns and took some new photos using my new method. These are very difficult to image, I like silver and nickel...
Post a photo so we can see. Small scratches on circulated coins will not get a coin body bagged, but any medium to large scratch indicative of...

Yellow-Magenta-Cyan is the typical color progression: [IMG]
A disturbingly ugly coin. The SAC dollar had one thing going for it, the beautiful eagle on the reverse. The mint recognized this fact and...
I think you should send that coin to me for further observation. Don't worry, I won't claim that it was lost in the mail and then compensate you...

Here is an example of a type set as defined in the NGC registry. This is my 20th Century Series Type Set Proofs & Non Proofs No Gold. [IMG]...
