A bright orange on both obverse & reverse over brilliant fields.  The obverse fields have some discoloration near the data and "Liberty".  Examination under a loop reveals clean fields with only one "flyspeck" visible - exceptional for Lincoln proofs.  Fabulous contrast is shown on both Lincoln and the wheat stalks.  The obverse contrast is truly magnificent. Please check out my extraordinary listings of high end Morgans as follows:1879-S NGC MS681880-CC NGC MS671884-S NGC MS621889-CC PCGS MS631895-O PCGS MS63Interested in more high end 1936-1942 proofs???  In a few days, I will be listing one of the finest collections of these coins - all graded by PCGS & NGC.  Most coins are near finest grades known.  Payment ~~~~THIS IS A NO PAYPAL AUCTION~~~~PayPal is NOT available for this auction.  Payment by bank transfer is preferred.  Check or money order is acceptable.  Personal checks are held for 7 days.Payment is due within 5 days of auction closing.
