<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WingedLiberty, post: 1429870, member: 26030&quot;]I bought this raw, ungraded Lincoln Cent off eBay for $75 about 6 weeks ago. This was the sellers description: &quot;Finest Rainbow Neon Toned Lincoln I&#039;ve ever seen, I almost fell over when I found this at our local coin show.&quot;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I was hoping that PCGS would grade it, but whenever copper shows this much rainbow color, getting a grade is a crapshoot.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I got the results back from PCGS on Friday night -- they blessed the toning and put an <b>MS65 BN</b> grade on this (making this coin a huge coup)!!&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The PCGS TrueView photograph turned out to be a showstopper.&nbsp; The obverse shows an interesting and attractive woody toning pattern with some subtle coloration, but clearly the star of the show is the vibrant reverse neon rainbow color -- which is nothing short of breathtaking.&nbsp; Getting this level and intensity of color on a mint state Lincoln (or any copper coin for that matter) is an extreme rarity.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]174683.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
