The 1929-S Lincoln arrived today. It is a full red beauty. There is the mark on Lincoln's shoulder and a few other scattered light marks on it.

Your picture taking is really great Paul..  I'll stick to my grade of MS-65RD..  What is the little dark mark on Lincolns temple, I see it in both pics?

It's a tiny carbon spot. The photo makes it look bigger than it is.
Thanks for your comment on the photos. Cents I seem to photograph well. If only I could capture the luster and detail on silver better. I'm still working and learning.

An MS65 coin is not perfection. An MS70 coin is. An MS65 coin can exhibit a few small imperfections such as this one. The less than full strike and small scratches are what keeps it from going higher. Nice coin

I sent the coin to NGC and have received a photograph of the coin and its grade. They gave it MS-65 Red and Brown. I'm happy for the MS-65, but thought the coin was full red. There's a big price difference between Full Red and RB. Still, even after NGC fees and what I paid for the coin I feel good about it.

I agree with the grade but I'm wondering about the RB designation.

I've tried to enlarge the photo to give people a better view of the coin.
