Sudz Pillar of the Community United States 1572 Posts	Posted 10/26/2017 11:29 pm I just found this in a large batch of Wheaties I purchased. I would sure welcome opinions on its grade. Thank you very much! Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 10/27/2017 02:05 am The rims indicate an MS, the chatter is bag/roll marks on the highs. Because of the chatter and carbon spot and tone(Lack of luster) it's running at MS62 tops, but still a fine grade on a tough date! Might look for this...@$190 if it's it Edited by Crazyb0 10/27/2017 02:10 am Report this Post to the Staff
spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 10/27/2017 02:16 am I'm not good at grading but, isn't there clear wear on Lincoln's cheek and the surrounding area (including the top of his ear)? I'm still trying to figure out the standards. They seem pretty much like mish-mash to me.

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 10/27/2017 08:34 am AU-58 Red. I think it's 95%+ red and would hold red against RB. At 8 o'clock on the reverse near the rim is a tiny corrosion spot. Get some pure acetone and touch that place with a tiny amount. Hopefully that will stop it's progression. It's a great find in a batch purchase. Report this Post to the Staff

BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19951 Posts	Posted 10/28/2017 1:12 pm Definitely signs of wear - AU-53, possibly cleaned. The cheek is just too flat, numerous marks on devices and in the fields. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
