KenKat Pillar of the Community United States 4085 Posts	Posted 01/22/2016 4:46 pm Not an Indian expert, but I think you are probably seeing a little strike weakness. Based on my experience with Lincolns, I don't think a 150 year old coin can get appreciable wear while still retaining that original red mint luster. I don't see red coins like that in AU slabs as a general rule. I think it is MS, probably 63RD. My 7070 US Type Set My 7100 Lincoln Cent Set (now with updates!) Report this Post to the Staff

oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 01/22/2016 10:18 pm There might be something going on between the "8" and "6" down towards the bottom loops of each digit. An image outside the 2 x 2 would be beneficial. Report this Post to the Staff
RedRaider Pillar of the Community United States 1021 Posts	Posted 01/23/2016 10:02 pm I see MS63RD all day. The strike is weak in places, I really don't see it as wear. Report this Post to the Staff
