moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 02/14/2016 9:00 pm Honestly I just don't like it. Although it is certainly a key date I would not be interested in this coin, even if it was cheap by any standards. I realize that there are plenty of collectors who would be very happy to own this coin or to use it as a hole filler, but I'm just not one of them. Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 02/14/2016 9:09 pm No problem with that assessment moxking. I actually have a PCGS VF20 as my main coin. Corrosion of this severity is not attractive to say the least. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 02/14/2016 9:25 pm I appreciate your understanding. I don't like to insult (most) coins, but I do believe it's good for everyone NOT to jump on the bandwagon just because a coin is scarce or rare. Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 02/14/2016 9:27 pm I encourage problem free whenever possible. Most problem coins I get a great deal on or it's a pass. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
mdrosophila Pillar of the Community United States 724 Posts	Posted 02/14/2016 9:52 pm I would suggest that this coin will be body bagged at any third party grading service. No grade at all. PCGS corroded. Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 02/14/2016 10:55 pm It's a flip anyway. Anyone that knows this key knows this a genuine example. PCGS would holder this coin. They only body bag questionable authenticity or what they deem as such. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHuntingDrew Pillar of the Community United States 4932 Posts	Posted 02/14/2016 11:18 pm PCGS would give it a Genuine grade. VF-35 details, maybe XF-40 Report this Post to the Staff
obiejj New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 02/15/2016 01:04 am I've read up a little on collector coin counterfeiting, and it's possible this could even be a cast counterfeit, many are known for having pits and poor surfaces. Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 02/15/2016 01:22 am Anyone with any doubt that this is a counterfeit, and BTW welcome to the CCF obiejj, can be rest assured that I have over 30 years buying and selling coins in all arenas, shows, ebay, brick and mortar, online. This coin is the real deal genuine. Let's get back to a details grade as I've asked please or don't participate. Thank you. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 02/15/2016 05:57 am It looks to me as if it was a 'dug' coin so I'm sure it would receive a details designation, I think EF-40 details Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19963 Posts	Posted 02/15/2016 08:13 am VF/EF details, looks genuine to me. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
Connor Pillar of the Community United States 2130 Posts	Posted 02/15/2016 09:14 am EF40 details for me. I bet it will still sell well if you put it on ebay. Back in my younger days of collecting I would have purchased it for a hole filler especially considering the date/mm on this one. Report this Post to the Staff
SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 02/15/2016 3:35 pm Just my thoughts again.. This coin to me is just a good in someones collection as a G-04/6 IMO, I mean a G-04 is nothing to get excited about so, I wouldn't mind this coin in my collection if I needed one....I love the Lincoln cents..
