Krazy Kermit Valued Member United States 50 Posts	Posted 07/13/2018 7:34 pm Hi-Ho! Krazy Kermit here! So I have a question I have been searching all day looking for what some of the differences are between a MS 60; MS 63 & MS 65 when it comes to Lincoln Memorial Cents. Does anyone have pictures of their own or pictures they deem good representations of each of those grades. I am trying to decide what grade to collect. Thanks, Kermit Report this Post to the Staff

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 07/13/2018 8:03 pm Don't eliminate higher grades, such as 66 & 67 from your possible choices. PCGS provides excellent grading photos. Rather than attempting a solid grade set, consider a near solid cost set. In other words, whatever grades are closest to your budget. If, for example, you chose $50 each as your cost target, some choices will be 67 while others might be 64. Report this Post to the Staff

The best way to educate yourself is to use ha.com or PCGS, you can find thousands of images for every issue in a very wide range of grades: https://www.PCGS.com/prices/pricegu...ent+(modern) Lincoln Cent Lover!

I thought PCGS had pics for both but apparently not. Strange. I collect Standing Liberty quarters, and they show grading photos for the different types. Seems like it would have been simple enough to do the same for Memorial cents. Report this Post to the Staff
