If the marks I see on the cheek are hits like I think they are the coin would grade at MS-63 with great eye appeal .
very pretty coin !

1337, for my education please! I see the dings on the cheekbone but I don't see wear. What are you seeing that makes you call it slight wear?

I'd call it MS64RD. I can see the rainbow BadThad! Beautiful coin.

I gave this coin an MS64+. I didn't mention the very strong cartwheel luster on both sides. As you turn and tilt the coin, it gives off a light show through the subtle reddish toning. This is one of the best eye appeal Lincoln's I've ever seen....that's the whole reason I bought it....I already have an MS65 red in this year. Sadly, I decided I spent too much money at the last coin show, so I'm parting with this coin to recoup some money. Although I'm really thinking of keeping it....arrrgggg....tough decision.  |

It's a beauty -- you should try to keep it. Sell off some stocks, bonds, lawnmowers, pocketwatches, etc. instead. Of course, if you are going to sell it, please put it up for sale here.

I would also grade 64+, at least. It's much nicer than a 63, in my opinion. Know what you mean about spending too much though, thad. Lately I haven't been spending and now I've actually amassed some real money...
