mamastinky Valued Member United States 441 Posts	Posted 12/04/2016 7:17 pm I am stumped. Is that wear on Lincoln? I do not see the same discoloration on the reverse high spots. Report this Post to the Staff

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36724 Posts	Posted 12/05/2016 11:00 am MS-65RB. I think there is enough tone areas on it to get an RB grade. Report this Post to the Staff

Joseph7420 Bedrock of the Community Canada 11922 Posts	Posted 12/05/2016 10:19 pm I would think MS-64 RB, although it might make RD. Edited by Joseph7420 12/05/2016 10:20 pm Report this Post to the Staff
