I just sold this, and while I think I have a decent "ballpark" idea of grade, I wanted to see what Lincoln collectors think just to pass your input on to the buyer.
I should note that Lincoln's bust isn't actually that weak, but due to lighting.
Shot through a air-tite so some of the lighter "marks" are not on the coin. (Those are dents around Lincoln's ear) Thanks!

I'll try it KurtS.... I'll say AU-55, There is a finger print or something like that on the reverse, plus the little dings on Lincolns ear.

I love these Lincolns, but I'll let the real Lincoln collectors say.

But still a real nice 70S

Shafta, thanks...I think it could easily be a 55. I initially guessed a 60 RB, as the coin looks far better than this pic.
What am doing asking people to grade from a photo anyways?
I suppose it's just info for the buyer, that's all.

I don't know, I thought you said you did'nt like that grading from a pic.

Actually, It could go.. 60 RB

Some flattening of the cheek takes it out of MS, quite a few wear dings evident. AU50

Hmm...could be, although I did not note any wear I could see on the actual coin under a loupe.
Then again, I can't confirm because the coin is shipped! I think the buyer got a decent deal all the same. Thanks
