Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74846 Posts	Posted 07/30/2019 8:02 pm I found this from a mixed roll, from a bank box of U.S. Pennies. Would this be in MS BU condition? I don't see any circulation wear anywhere on the high points. I do see some contact marks and scratches, but nothing major. It appears to be in MS BU condition. What do you guys think? Also, today is my birthday as well! Makes a great birthday present for me. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 07/30/2019 8:37 pm Pretty impressive for a roll find, maybe 63RB? Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74846 Posts	Posted 07/30/2019 8:38 pm Coinfrog, thank you for your input! I appreciate it! I am thinking MS-63/MS-64? Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3663 Posts	Posted 07/30/2019 8:45 pm Quite the b'day present, my friend! It sure looks BU to me, too. Where has that critter been hiding all these years? It's an awesome find. Is that a circular die crack (RCD?) across Lincoln's coat from the rim and right side of the inverted "V" to the lower shoulder and rim? Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74846 Posts	Posted 07/30/2019 8:52 pm Thank you fortcollins! It's a beautiful Cent! I don't know how this got into the mixed rolls, but it did somehow, and I was the one to find it. I check the coat and there's no Die Crack. Might be a trick of the lighting. Errers and Varietys.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74846 Posts	Posted 07/30/2019 9:18 pm Thank you GrapeCollects! I will gladly retake the obverse picture for you at a closer angle. Just give me a couple of minutes and it will be ready. :) Here are the new pictures GrapeCollects. I retook all of them. I took a couple more. Errers and Varietys.

GrapeCollects Pillar of the Community United States 8938 Posts	Posted 07/30/2019 10:59 pm Thanks for the new pics! From these I say AU58RB. There is wear on the jawline, upper hair, beard, and the tips of the wheat stalks. Nice Choice AU for sure, and an incredible CRH score! Report this Post to the Staff

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 07/31/2019 10:05 am I'd agree with GrapeCollects but for a different reason. AU-58, Eye Appeal 7/10. Amazement Factor 100%! You will always remember THAT birthday. With the closer photos it is actually difficult to see much rub on the high points, however, the open fields, particularly to the left and right of the obverse portrait, show the indications of toning from skin contact. Those slightly darker (looks scruffier) open areas are a firmer indication of minute circulation. Still a major prize. MANY congratulations. Report this Post to the Staff
