johnny54321 Rest in Peace United States 4849 Posts	Posted 06/21/2014 2:15 pm I already had one in my collection, and got another in the new collection I bought. Cant decide which one to keep and which to sell....as modern lincolns are not at all my thing. What would you grade them and which should I keep? [b]Here is the 1st one from my old collection. [b]Here is the 2nd one from the new collection: Report this Post to the Staff

vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 06/21/2014 6:55 pm I like the second one John..for displaying reasons (obverse side up). Despite the marks, it has a stronger strike. 62-63RD swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

rking007 Pillar of the Community United States 784 Posts	Posted 06/21/2014 11:11 pm I'll chime in and say the second as well. The carbon spot on the obverse of the first just hurts it a bit in the eye appeal department. Tough to say based on grade alone as they both have some pretty decent dings on the head/neck (cheek and under the nose on the first one and forehead/eye/neck on the second) but I bet they both could earn a 63. Either way, that's still a coin I need to pick up for my Dansco and they are both very nice! Congrats! Report this Post to the Staff
