I'm curious to see what everyone thinks the grade is. No, it's not graded and I don't know enough to be accurate with grading. My guess would be MS63 RD.

I guess if you feel like it, include what you would pay, maybe I can tell if I got ripped off

On a side note I'm excited about this coin...it's the little things

One of the advantages of using an iPad is that I can enlarge photos very easily, but it doesn't help with thumbnails. We need bigger pics.

Proofs are really hard to grade from pictures. PR-64 $20 or so.

I am not good at grading but it looks like a LD not a SD.Is that a vertical scratch above the date?

hmm...9 is level with the 1 and the 6 has a large loop not a bend. I think it's a SD

And the mark above the date is some kind of die mark, you can almost see a weird pattern around lincolns nose in the field in the picture...

I'll try to take better pics

Here are the best pictures my usb microscope can take.
It doesn't look half bad! But in some light it looks like there's a light green haze on it?
I paid $10 for it...

I'm a little scared about the light haze on it. Could it be PVC poisoning even though it spent its entire life in a proof set OGP?

I don't know about the grade but the last picture just looks like a different coin to me then the first one. First picture looks like a large date last looks like a small date or maybe its just me

Small Date. Torn between a PR65 and PR66 - mostly due to the noticeable scratch in the right hand field of the obverse above the date. Beauty of a coin!
