My 18 is my nicest looking teen and I'm thinking of sending him in...but mine is not as nice as yours.
Other then the "tiny" dink in front of the beard...I see no other hits or wear.
Looks fantastic! I can't tell if there's enough red to carry a RB...but like panzaldi said...66/66+
Look fwd to the reveal

To me, pics are too soft to see surface details clearly.

  I tried to get as detailed as possible. I think it's a good coin. 30 pwr scope pic and two very minor ticks. If it was graded without details, I thought a fairly high grade? Did PCGS say questionable color? |

MS65 BN. MS64 wouldn't surprise me either.

I'll say MS-65+BN, choice for grade. Tough call.

New pictures! I don't see a hit, the devices are amazingly clean. Only negative is just some unevenness in the brown patina and an obverse fingerprint. That's one awesome example in full brown - properly stored it will stay that color virtually forever.

Nice, clean fields coin. Lincoln's wrinkled brow shows boldly.
I say at least a 66 BN.

MS65+ for me. Light ticks on rims. Appears to be something going on with the S in TRUST--close proximity to S. Last T in TRUST has a light ding or two, it seems. Crease a tad above the 8 in 1918? Light ding on E in ONE--shows on last photo. Very, very nice coin.

 Okay, this was graded ms-65 red-brown by PCI now straight brown and down a point. I was worried it would be detailed as questionable color, so when I got it back, I was happy. Back when I cracked it out, I was still learning a lot. I have a little better equipment to check things out and know a little more of what to look for (still a ways to go). I will start a new thread on whether to resubmit |

if they saw an issue with the color then they probably would have detailed the coin. I dont see any issue with it and I think PCGS is wrong on this one with its grade. unless this coin looks way different than the photos, what the heck are deducting for?

I see a field mark above the 8 in the date. With respect, the OP's pics are generally not the best for grading.

They probably downgraded it for what we cannot see - luster.
I still think it deserves a 65 for the lack of contact marks and the overall eye appeal.
