<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WingedLiberty, post: 1234554, member: 26030&quot;]Good question <b>merccrazy</b>.&nbsp; The 1962, above, is the cleanest Lincoln Proof in my (admittedly small) collection with just incredible pop and visual appeal.&nbsp; There are some slightly darker, copper-colored toning spots on the reverse of the &#039;62, that get heavier around the word STATES -- so maybe that&#039;s why NGC dropped the grade to a PF 66?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>That being said, to my eye, the green-toned 1962 looks much better (cleaner) than this color-heavy 1961 (below) graded by PCGS as PR <u><b>67</b></u> RB, which has some &quot;rust like&quot; toning spots around the IN GOD WE TRUST motto on the obverse.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It might be interesting to submit the green-toned 1962 to PCGS, but it&#039;s a small potatoes coin and the $25 slabbing fee might not be worth the trouble. Excuse my bad photo on the &#039;61, the toning on this coin makes it an exceedingly difficult coin to capture.&nbsp; I plan on having this coin professionally imaged.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]131740.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
