You read that right. I finally filled that hole.  How do you think he rates?

 Happy you got that one. I still haven't pulled the trigger on that baby. I actually had one in my hand at the LCS today but decided to keep looking for better deals. Still haven't purchased any 3-figure Lincolns ... YET

There's just enough on the feathering to just....beeeerllly push it into a fine, F10 on reverse but not enough on the coat/collar and facial features to bump it solid over that line....G-8 combined. A nice solid coin, no major damages, just honest even wear. I like it, nice one boss! Now you can toss that mint plug with the 1914D sticker on it!

CONGRATS! Probably the most difficult hole there is to fill in a Lincoln set IMHO. VERY pleasing appearance - for that level of wear, it's amazingly nice. I absolutely love that coin! Excellent purchase!    I see a lot of wheat lines, still some decent detail. Given the eye appeal, VG-8 and a pepper for me:

Thank you for the comments, everyone.  He will show up in Guess The Price eventually, so you are going to have to wait a while to learn what I paid.

That looks like a nice solid G-6 to me... thisclose to being a VG-8... Might call it a G-7, actually.

In my opinion It's too nice for a G-06 . Coin has honest wear through out . Good color , no issues, good eye appeal . VG-8 /10 . I like it .
