Aref Valued Member United Arab Emirates 170 Posts	Posted 09/29/2022 1:13 pm Lincoln's face looks like it was damaged. Would it get a details grade because of that or no? Report this Post to the Staff
snagglepuss31 New Member United States 20 Posts	Posted 09/29/2022 1:22 pm Not sure about grade but I have a question for the more seasoned experts. Could this coin be a matte proof? I see the wire rim on the lower obv that is supposed to be a sign of a proof of that era. The strike also looks pretty detailed for this time frame. Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 26190 Posts	Posted 09/29/2022 1:36 pm Looks AU-53 to me. Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 18470 Posts	Posted 09/29/2022 11:58 pm AU-53, nice one! It's a "slight" mint error. Look at the obverse rim bulge above TRUST, then look at the reverse opposite side of that - the rim is off. It's an effect I've seen on CUD coins....I think the error collectors call it the Blakelee effect (sp)? Post in the errors forum section, should provoke some discussion. Lincoln Cent Lover!

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 13735 Posts	Posted 09/30/2022 09:51 am looks like a low AU coin. my first thought was a details coin due to all the scrapes across the profile which is the key area for grading. I think it could be called ED but might be borderline. I would definitely not pay AU $$ for it. i'd rather have a nice XF45 Edited by panzaldi 09/30/2022 09:53 am Report this Post to the Staff
JTCC Pillar of the Community United States 723 Posts	Posted 10/09/2022 8:17 pm I say XF details. Report this Post to the Staff
