Still working on my photo skills. Here's a 1911-S Lincoln I've had around for quite a while. Looking for grading opinions.

Nice! The obverse looks XF45/AU50 but the mushiness in the wheat lines look more VF20/F15. It also looks like he could do with a Verdicare or an acetone soak to see if some of the shmutz will come off. I think the outdoor lighting is masking the color of the gunk. Sweet coin!

I am at VF35 on this one. Cheek/jaw seperate on obverse, but the wheat kernels look like they are lacking seperation.

Regardless...NICE coin. Need to kill the verdigris on this one though.

Please post pictures afterwards.

Thanks for sharing!

I'll go XF40 with a weak strike. This baby needs an acetone or Verdi-Care bath for a few hours. The '11-S Lincoln is almost a key date in my book!

Wow, very nice coin! EF-45

That's a valuable, rare coin. Hate to go against my fans, but I'd leave it just as it is. You need to rinse it with some acetone and get it into an airtite holder ASAP though.

This cent was in a huge collection I bought a couple years ago. It's been in a coin tube with a couple other dates ever since. I think the other dates are 12-s & 14-s. I haven't had a lot of success with pics for copper coins. Trying a new setup now. Will acetone this one.

VF-25. Looks like some junk on the surface that needs to be removed with Acetone.
