Well that makes sense! I was not sure if the coin was slabbed or not. On all the auction archives I could find for the last eight years, no MS69 1909 Lincoln's have crossed the auction tables on any major auction. Mike.....Must be worth mega-bucks!!!!! I saw one MS68, some 67'S and tons of 66's.......

Zakgold, Catman said in his earlier response that this coin grades out an MS69! I can't find any value info on a 1909 Lincoln of "any" type that grades out that high. Susan said he uses ANAC's. However, Catman never indicated that the coin was in a slab! Catman is this a "raw" coin? If it is not slabbed,will it be? This coin has me fascinated! Mike [:p]

Catman, thanks for posting the answers. You bought a stunning coin. I would love to see a set of that quality. It would be something to behold. ANAC'S is my favorite TPG as well. I think they are tough on grades and anything that passes them with a market grade is going to slab anywhere else with no problems. They are a nice bunch to chat with as well. If you get a coin back from them and have a question, they will talk to you directly! They also give you a break if you submit a bunch of coins. All you have to do is ask! I like their holders. They are compact and stack tightly. The best part of all is the price and no body bags! Congratulations on a stunning coin! What little detail kept it from that perfect 70? Mike [:p]
