YourGeorgiaPeach Valued Member United States 287 Posts	Posted 03/21/2019 9:13 pm Lately I've been pretty lucky with finding low MS Lincolns from the 70s in coin roll hunts. Of course I've yet to find a brilliant specimen, but for what it's worth, it's cool to see them hold up so well after prolonged spans of time. My favorite part about this is replacing inferior cents collected prior and updating the coin books (Gradually becoming more attractive with the finer coins). With the minor scratches and carbon specks, how do you think it would grade overall? YGP Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 03/22/2019 05:09 am IMHO, to me it would be a spender because of the spotting. It does look like a small date. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
