I love em when they come out brand new yet old in date, out of roll. Shinning red. Does not happen very often...but suddenly out of the blue. PCGS shows a lot of money for this coin at those fun auctions...the one I found has a creamy soft surface. Kinda teal color but hard to photograph in bright light what I see on a magnifying glass (color). The 1969s has some thing shinny on the corner of the blg on rev. some letters but hard to photograph...i tired to. God Bless, Baba Beck.
Do you see in the photo above? The Halo's around the devices, this is the result of circulation. The flashy areas in the lettering date and around Lincoln is Original mint luster. The open areas that are easily accessed by fingers and contact from other objects looks flat and dull this is a circulated coin and not worth the big money that a high grade MS coin would deserve.
