KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 03/24/2008 6:15 pm I just sold this, and while I think I have a decent "ballpark" idea of grade, I wanted to see what Lincoln collectors think just to pass your input on to the buyer. I should note that Lincoln's bust isn't actually that weak, but due to lighting. Shot through a air-tite so some of the lighter "marks" are not on the coin. (Those are dents around Lincoln's ear) Thanks! Edited by KurtS 03/24/2008 6:28 pm Report this Post to the Staff

SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 03/24/2008 6:33 pm I'll try it KurtS.... I'll say AU-55, There is a finger print or something like that on the reverse, plus the little dings on Lincolns ear. I love these Lincolns, but I'll let the real Lincoln collectors say. But still a real nice 70S Edited by SHAFTA9a 03/24/2008 6:35 pm Report this Post to the Staff
KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 03/24/2008 6:37 pm Shafta, thanks...I think it could easily be a 55. I initially guessed a 60 RB, as the coin looks far better than this pic. What am doing asking people to grade from a photo anyways? I suppose it's just info for the buyer, that's all.

KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 03/24/2008 8:38 pm Hmm...could be, although I did not note any wear I could see on the actual coin under a loupe. Then again, I can't confirm because the coin is shipped! I think the buyer got a decent deal all the same. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff
