1913 1C, RB PR66RB 认证号05931052, PCGS号3316

This particular proof must be almost unique. I’ve never seen this many color variations on any type of coin before. The descriptor Red-Brown is clearly inadequate to describe this coin’s deep colors, absent some sort of further description. Both sides exhibit not only beautiful proof rainbow toning but wild diagnostic swirling die polish striations all over the fields on both obverse and especially reverse. The color is obviously dramatic, and for lovers of toned coins, this one is remarkable. The photo does not give a very good view of the depth of the luster, unfortunately. The grade could very well be PR66 RB, Green, Blue, Yellow, Orange, Magenta, Dubonnet, etc! The strike is good on Lincoln’s shoulder and all the high points are crisp. Yet with all that color, the coin appears original and untampered, as the delicate polish lines are numerous and undisturbed, as mentioned. Provenance: Ex. Takade; Ex. Dave Kelly Collection; Ex.
