Thanks! Getting an affirmation on CoinTalk is as good as getting it graded.
I am pretty sure this is an upgrade to my existing pure brown example. I was hoping to get a little color into that slot, while keeping the good...
Those are really nice. I thought the 51 was a proof!
Great information to know. Thanks. My 1913 business strike does, in fact, have better rims on most of the obverse! But the engraving in the beard...
Bob, are the rims perhaps why it was only graded PR63 originally? It is odd to have weak rims, since they are struck under high pressure. It looks...
I was mistaken, the black spot I saw on the first photo is still there on the TrueView. It's a bit of corrosion, pointed to by the green arrow....

An upgrade for 1950-D. The existing coin was nice, except for the carbon spots on both sides. [ATTACH] The new acquisition. [ATTACH] Full...
I also upgraded this 1938-S whose surface seems to have deteriorated further. [ATTACH] I like Lincolns because most of my upgrades are well...
While my original 1938 is actually extremely nice in hand (like this) [ATTACH] I upgraded it anyway to this one, fresh from the mint. [ATTACH]...
I upgraded this to replace one that was spotted. [ATTACH] Full resolution photos [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
