Given what I've seen you post before, I'm gonna guess it's pretty top grade, looks pretty clean to me, slight Nick on Lincoln's cheek, full red.
MS-66 rd
@coinfrog
I think the plastic is a bit a big jagged, that's my guess.

I am wondering the same thing about the obverse rim . Half of it looks like rim damage , the other half looks like the plastic is damaged . Can't give a grade at this time .  |

Assuming the rim issue is on the plastic holder, which appears to be the case, this one is up there. MS-65 or better.

The Rim issues is actually on the coin. It seems raised, what could that mean? A scratch would not be raised correct?

65 RD IMO, can you get a close up of the rim?

If you follow the inside rim line from the last T in "TRUST" and go counter-clockwise, it reaches the N in "IN" My guess here, is a possible broadstruck planchet which is considered an error (not environmental damage) By Definition: A coin that is struck outside the collar. The collar is the retaining ring that establishes the final diameter of the newly-struck coin. My assertion could be wrong with this coin, but you can find many examples on the net by googling broadstruck penny. |

If the rim is not damaged, looks like some plastic to me... 65-66RB That's a stunning coin, it should be in a TPG holder. CONGRATS! Edited by BadThad

Still don't know what's going on with the rim. Can you give us different pictures with some close ups and angles?

Give us some close pictures of that area, it's really hard to see in the given picture. Now that I look closer, it looks like a genuine mint error to me. It looks like the collar was failing, the rim is really thin on the east side. Appears as if the damage is from the die itself to me. I'd post it in the errors forum with better pics of that area.

Congrats!
But now I have to be that guy. Looking at trueview, I think they were a bit generous. Then again, could just be a somewhat typical TV misrepresentation. Big price jump from 65-66.
Regardless, nice example.

Thank you for all the feed back! Also, I think they have super powerful cameras, because this coin does not look so dirty, it actually has really nice luster.
