I was doing my usual "looking around" and stumbled across this little beauty. At first I thought that it was a nice piece and went on to the next item...and it suddenly hit me, " I do not have the Lincoln Cent for my PCGS Birth Year Set". So, I went back and snagged it.  What do you think in comparison to PCGS? Thank you for your interest!    Edited by oih82w8

 That sounds good to me. I was going to say 66 but I tend to be a point or so off on memorials most the time. 67 it is!  Edited by LincolnGuy

Taking into consideration PCGS adds toning into the final grade I would agree with the others at SP 67.

PCGS's Plus designation is like NGC's Star? An in-between grade like 67 1/2? "This coveted designation, indicated by a symbol immediately following the grade, identifies coins that are superior in eye appeal to more typical coins of the same grade, and is unique to NGC. While there are many features that may lead to a coin receiving a star, there is one thing that always holds true: every star designated coin is something special to see."http://www.certifiedassets.com/Coin...designation/Totally different, here it is from PCGS; "The plus grades will be designated on the insert of the firms' holders with a "+" and will apply to high end examples of the grades 40 through 68 (excluding grades 60 and 61)". http://www.pcgs.com/News/Two-Leadin...Plus-GradingEdited by oih82w8
