<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WingedLiberty, post: 1550364, member: 26030&quot;]<b>1964 Lincoln Cent (Proof).</b>&nbsp; &quot;Winter Chill, Summer Fire&quot;.&nbsp; Cool silver ice on one side and molten burning fire on the other. Toning just doesn&#039;t get much more visually appealing than this!&nbsp; Robec photographed this monster 1964 Proof Lincoln that I bought (a few weeks ago) raw off eBay for $10.&nbsp; This is on its way (eventually) to PCGS for grading, where I am guessing a PR67RB grade is in store.&nbsp; This is an important coin in my research of toning as it&#039;s the first &quot;silver-toned&quot; Lincoln that I have ever seen where the silver colored toning blended into other colors (as clearly noted on the reverse). Until now, I have only seen silver toning (on copper coins) with a hard (distinct) boundary.&nbsp;&nbsp; By the way, I am not exactly sure what causes copper coins to develop silver colored toning, but I have seen a number of examples of this (all, I think, were proof Lincolns).&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; In any case, Robec did an outstanding job with the photography!&nbsp; RobecsImages is fast becoming the &quot;The other TrueView photography&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://mindstar.com/cointalk_photos/RI_WL1964LincPRSilver.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
