    Lock it away in an oxygen, moisture and light deprived environment in a sterile and neutral holder forever. Even then, given the quality of zinc cents today, it'll probably still disintegrate and change colors.

    You keep jumping topics. It's like you are ignoring everyone's answers. How about actually taking in the info you've been given on your previous questions, learning from that, and absorb it before moving on? If you really have an interest in knowledge, it is, guaranteed, a much better way of accomplishing that vs. what I am seeing you doing.

    This is merely an acceptance problem. @gianni
    There is no way of turning your brown cents into Red ones.

    If your coin is in this range it is worth while wondering if it is red. Compare it to your images and you can see the vast color difference. I think this is gradeable as Red but it’s raw, so it could be a an RB near the 95% end of the scale.

    As far as I now Red is designated for coins that have zero distracting carbon spots.
    The red can change tones, even light pastels, but if they are distracting then they get booted to RB.
    Here is a 46D that I would grade red on the OBV. The jacket is slightly under lit but still you can see that the dark red has not darkened enough to eliminate the depth of luster. IMG_0001_1.JPG
    And RB on the reverse. I think I could have portrayed it better but the tone is slightly lack luster. IMG_0001_3.JPG
    Some of it is the IDT. But the tone says Brown and not Red.

    That looks circulated and cleaned. Since it has been polished, I wonder if your lighting is making it appear a different color in the pictures than it does in hand.

    To all members/lurkers reading this: we are NOT psychics. You CANNOT expect us to automatically see what you see without good pictures.

    I haven't watched SNL since the Seventies, but I like the real Jeopardy program. Chevy Chase was just too obtuse to give the show a second chance. AFAIK those who say it has turned into a political program with little or no real comedy these days would further enforce my decision not to watch it 40 some years ago.

    I love SNL and their depictions of certain popular figures. Their skits practically parody real life these days. Sometimes I wonder who is copying/mocking who versus Washington figures. The musical 'acts' have to go though.

    I can't tell the SNL skits from reality these days. Seems like they are more accurate in their depictions than reality. Love them.
