I'm thinking MS-66 as well.
Errers and Varietys.

Nice coin, that one reverse hit might keep it out of 66.
MS-65

Obverse has a few rim ticks and chatter on coat. reverse that darn center hit  Tough call because you've been sharing some wonderful coins with us. I'm going with 65+ |

the big question is who would pay to have this graded? I guess to each his own.

The results: NGC MS67RD   For some context, I bought this coin pretty much sight unseen on ebay when I was early in my numismatic journey. I frankly don't see how this coin got the ms67 grade unless I am missing something about the reverse gash. There is no doubt that it has gorgeous color and booming luster but technically seems questionable. Quote:

I keep telling folks, ICG is most accurate grader of Lincolns, they beat PCGS too!
