Mid-range AU for me. Hope a long acetone soak eliminates much of the crud.

A very nice AU coin.  Errers and Varietys.

EF-45 was my first thought...
But I guess on a good day...AU-50...but I wouldn't count on it...
Just too many to comare it too...
Still a hellava filler for now...
Good eye...

To my eyes, too much ware on his ear and wheat grains appear flat.

first congrats on your roll. I dont think I've ever heard anyone doing that.
if you acetone it, resend it. I think its an excellent candidate for verdicare which may clean up more than the acetone.
depends on how it cleans up could be as high as AU53

The wheat grains are quite sharp still. I would do noting to this coin other than a xylene rinse and an airtite. The crud shows it's originality, it's a circ coin, leave it be IMO.

I don't know if others have the same problem but I seem to gravitate to them.

I put together a grade set with the intent of setting up a Lincoln wheat grading webpage. Nobody has done it that I'm aware of. 1909 is THE BEST year to show photos of the various grades - the master dies/hubs were brand new. It's the reference/baseline point of how Lincoln wheats should look.  |
