I have some early Lincoln wheats that have never been in circulation. However, they are all in varying shades of brown, some very attractive. They lack mint luster, so what would they grade(s) at? They're not AU because they aren't ALMOST uncirculated...they are uncirculated. Thanks in advance for the expert opinions I am sure to receive. Y'all are way too sharp! Thanks, Terri
Is there any way you could take some photographs and upload them? Otherwise, you might want to check out this site to get a general idea. http://www.lincolncentresource.com/Lincoln_Cent_Grading_Guide.html
Just because they are brown doesn't mean they don't have luster, but yes, it is possible that they don't. It's just not a certainty.
