1912 toned wheatie from the Dalton show

8 posts in this topic

This is one of only two purchases I made at the show. It is also one of the few early lincolns I found (at least that was certified or not 1909). This coin does not have as nice a strike as I would like, but the luster is decent given the dark shades of the toning. In any case I bought it because I liked the color anyhow. I had to pay more than I really wanted to, but after taking a sick day and $50 in gas what is an extra $20 or $30.

 

Also the obverse has more red than the pic shows. I may do a video tomorrow.

I am not 100% sure. I may be a die chip, or possibly pmd. It is not nearly as prominent in hand and looks like it is an area that did not tone. The fact it is untoned and disturbed makes me wonder if it is pmd that they ignored???
