Thanks in advance, found another Lincoln Cent to upgrade a horrible one that I currently have in my collection. What do you all think of the grade and what it's value might be.

Thank you!

Beautiful coin! Looks to be 65RB or even 66RB from these pics. I would think the value in a TPG holder to be at least $125, or even more depending on the grade.

Its a beauty. At least MS65RB could make 66. Not that much different in price. Maybe $40. Ive seen others similar in the $170-180 range.

So it sounds like the asking price is good. I can get it for $40.

Well I went for it. Was able to get it for 40. It's a great replacement for the AG-3 I had in that date/mm combo. Can't wait to see it in hand. Until then here is the current official pic of it.

A first glance I thought it might be a matte proof. Otherwise it looks like a lock 64RB and maybe better. Nice looking coin.

64RB, the fields look a little busy and the obverse is a MAD.

I can't see any cartwheels in the photo. Better pictures needed!
Lincoln Cent Lover!
