<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Shoewrecky, post: 902428, member: 22350&quot;]RLM,</p><p>Love those Lincolns, man they are great. If they are AT, then who ever is creating them is doing one heck of a job and pretty good at it. From looking on ebay, there appears to be a lot of AT especially on newer proofs (late 80s - to present), where the colors appear to sit on top of them. the pictures you provided of the Lincolns seem to have the color &quot;soaked&quot; into the coin.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I would also think they are NT due to the date and the grade of these coins. I understand that the toning could increase the price but why risk it especially on the first year Wheats were introduced. To me that is a big gamble to which i wouldnt bet on..</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Now I would only think it&#039;s fake on these points, on both coins the lower edge of the rim on the obverse side has a light color purple, the left side of lincolns body has the light purple from his hair to his shoulder. On the reserve side of the coin, if you look around the rim you will see a light purple to include the stalks of wheat.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>There is yellow on both coins in Lincolns hair. Again on the reserve, if you look at the top letters R I B are yellow on both Lincolns. Also there is a tan/green/gray color at the ends of each stalks.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Are you sure these are 2 different coins or maybe one slightly angled different, used less lighting etc?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I dunno very hard to tell.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>My 2 cents, FWIW</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Shrek</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Editted: If the colors I stated are not correct, it&#039;s due to my color blindness.
