<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coppermania, post: 1304637, member: 18304&quot;]Pretty cool thread Lance. I&#039;ll go first I guess.</p><p><br /></p><p>From what I can see from the pictures, I will step out and say that the NGC slabbed 1913 looks like a MS 63 from what I am used to seeing. If it is body bagged it is due to what looks like a wipe on the reverse or the spot on the lapel has a halo around it that can signify a recolor job. </p><p><br /></p><p>The PCGS 1909 would surely grade higher than 63 and if it doesn&#039;t, it would be due to the bold color. You know as well as I do that there isn&#039;t any true guidelines the TPG&#039;s use to follow when it comes to color, and it wouldn&#039;t surprise me at all if it BB for color. </p><p><br /></p><p>I would say I PREFER the 1909 simply because of the matte fields alone. The 1913 looks to be lacking that and why else own one unless it is there? Although I own some business strike Lincoln cents that have similar attributes like this, I can see these MPLs as both being market market acceptable on any given day.</p><p><br /></p><p>JMO Matt[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
