Thanks malfero. I'll have to check them out when I go to get a 16D. And I'm 99.99% sure that I'll leave this one in the slab

The first one was album material. This one I would leave it in the slab.

I called it EF, and would say EF45 which is 5 pts. away from the AU50, because I personally find it difficult to call something Almost Uncirculated when it is closer to an EF than it is to an uncirculated coin. That's only my preference. I do find that there are too many grades especially at the MS level.

I think most people will use the PCGS grade when looking up it's value though, so I think it would go for at least $900 if I decide to sell it. But I think I'll just be happy with it for awhile.

Although, I can see me possibly selling it to fund the purchases of a slabbed low grade svdb, and a slabbed low grade 16d, so I can know they're legit, and then crack em out to complete my books

It's a nice coin representing that year/mm... if I collected Lincolns, I would be extremely happy having that coin in my collection.

So I bought my coin on 7/2/19, a day in which there was a total solar eclipse visible in South America. Now it's 7/16/19, a day in which there's a partial lunar eclipse visible in Europe, and my coin has finally arrived! I must say that I am totally satisfied with this purchase!    P.S. The pictures really don't do it justice.

You did well, more than twice as nice as the last one you had.

Thanks Mr. Pink. I think so too because I like everything about it. The grade, the look, the price, the timing of when I bought and when I received it, I even like the certification number because 376 is my town's phone number exchange and 2002 was a memorable year for me and so I immediately memorized the cert number. I think it was just meant to be
