pman860507 Pillar of the Community United States 784 Posts	Posted 07/12/2011 8:13 pm I know I am a new to grading but I am terrible at grading LMC. I found this one while roll searching for the first time. I bought 6 rolls from the bank came out pretty good. I didnt find anything pre 1960 I did fill a lot of my hole in my book though. I know BadThad told someone to only keep coins that are MS-65+ after a date I cant remember (BadThad only because I know you will read this. If I am wrong please correct me.) Also what do I need to be looking at while grading LMC. Thanks Casey Parman Report this Post to the Staff

BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19986 Posts	Posted 07/12/2011 10:42 pm Looks like a film is covering the coin, subdues the luster a bit. I save all BU Lincolns, start a roll set. MS-64/65RD Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff

That is another thing I really have not figured out is lighting. I only have one desktop light that I shine down on the coins. It does look a lot better then the picture.

rdlem Valued Member United States 187 Posts	Posted 07/13/2011 11:57 am I'm also quite interested in learning to grade current issue coins since those are pretty much all I see. And I know the picture is a little 'off' but isn't that wear on most of the high points of Lincoln himself? (shoulder, lapel, collar, hair cheek and temple) Report this Post to the Staff
