Bookworm New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 01/23/2021 03:10 am It looks like this coin might be considered "full stairs." Anyone else think so? Report this Post to the Staff
biker420 Valued Member United States 57 Posts	Posted 01/23/2021 05:20 am What does that mean Report this Post to the Staff
Numiscrat Valued Member United States 90 Posts	Posted 01/23/2021 07:39 am Unfortunately, the most important part of the grade for this coin is the "Damaged" designation. It looks like someone used an abrasive substance or tool on it. That absolutely kills collector value. Unless I am missing something in the photo, the coin might have been worth a few bucks before someone tried to improve its appearance. Now, it would be a hard coin to sell for really cheap.

Numiscrat Valued Member United States 90 Posts	Posted 01/23/2021 07:43 am And I have no idea, either, how "full stairs" (meaning "full steps"?) is relevant to a Lincoln Wheat cent. Not heard of that. Report this Post to the Staff

You must be thinking of the Lincoln Memorial cent . This coin is VG-8 Details because of all the scratches . Proud Member of The Black Sheep Squadron ! In Memory of Fallen Black Sheep Mates .

Numiscrat Valued Member United States 90 Posts	Posted 01/23/2021 08:04 am Yes. What T-BOP said. "Details" is probably what it would be officially called by a third party grader, though it does include damage. That's what happens when I am trying to be helpful too early in the morning, waiting for the sun to rise so I can get outside! Coffee hasn't taken effect! Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Pillar of the Community United States 2985 Posts	Posted 01/23/2021 08:31 am Led Zeppelin knows where the stairs go. I think Bookworm (above) was being facetious. Coin, unfortunately, is damaged--all those abrasion lines. Worth somewhere between 15 and 25 cents given the condition. Report this Post to the Staff
