Seems odd that this coin goes in the Modern coin forum, but so be it. These are the best photos I've been able to take so far of this coin. It's graded by PCGS; anyone care to share their own grading opinion?   |

That coin is the epitome of F12.
Enjoy it.

My opinion is a VF25 with a slight 'Woody.'

I am having a hard time with the obverse (tough to see), but I think around VF20

The obverse is either soft or a bad picture. Nice reverse.
VF20

vg-10. I don't think the obverse warrants a F or VF.

F-15 Easy But if you want to get rid of it for copper bullion, I'll give you my info!    |

It needs to be in my collection, it's the only Lincoln I need from 1909 to 2012 including proofs. It will grade VF.20

Very nice S VDB. Superb reverse. Could go VF, but was netted to F15.

Details not strong enough for a 20 in my humble opinion.
Another F15 here.

I need to work on the obverse photo; for this first attempt I was unable to capture the full amount of hair detail that is actually present. The reverse photo came out very nice IMO since in-hand the coin looks just like the picture. PCGS was a bit more generous in their assessment. CCF graders are tough! Still, based on my experience with slabbed early Lincoln cents this coin is not conspicuously overgraded.  |
