Owner Comments:

Next in line of the difficult 50's Philly mint Lincolns, this example is far better than the average. What is common about this example is the darker more brick red color. What is uncommon is a full crisp strike, clear mostly clean surfaces, and strong luster all combined to lift this coin to the + grade. Perhaps the small hit on Lincoln's cheek held it back from a 67 as that is really the only mark of note. Housed in the latest NGC prong style holder.
