This is one of my coloured coins which must have been kept in some sort of folder or book (probably my old Whitman folders). I have several other cents with different colours; green, blue, black on the reverses and red on the obverse. For anyone posting coins for grading, it's better to have several photos at different angles to get an idea of a grade. Someone posted one time that another user had posted too many photos. I usually take 4 of each side but this one was so nice I took a lot more. I'll only make you sit through a few (okay 6). It has a few nicks but must score extra points for looks.
Are you sure that it wasn't put inside a baked potato and placed in the oven? I've heard of that being done for great color. Just kidding, Terry, nice coin.
