I'm going to reach outside my comfort zone with this one; circulated Lincs aren't exactly my sweet spot. Fascinating artifacts of what seem as much hub deterioration as Die Deterioration, and a pretty good strike compared to what was still possible by that point. 35 or 40, and a truly solid catch. |

THAT is a superb 15D!
AU58 on any day. If they gave an an AU59...this coin is it.
Congrats!

Nice coin that looks AU to me. I would guess 50 or 53 but could go higher if viewed in-hand.

Oh....one heck of a bag find..... $50 coin!
Hint for those wondering about the grade. Look at the rims. That's the highest point of the whole design. They're all bit worn and you can also see wear on the wheat lines.

IMO, it looks no worse than an AU-58. Stunning bag find!

You can see a bit of rub on cheek and jaw, a little on the wheat. Gorgeous coin. AU-55.

Really nice coin ! When you say bag find, was it a bag of wheats or pennies in general ? A box ?

It was a 500 count wheat bag from a dealer. Got a pretty nice 15-s in it too.
