Fair Price For Lincoln 1944 D/S

Thanks for the response. There lies my problem with the large price difference between these grades. The dealer has an EF price on the coin and I don't feel the coin overall is EF (would be a stretch for me to grade it that high). But the mintmark and overstrike are really good.

Let you know what I decide.

Yes, I guess I wasn't totally awake this morning. I meant VF not fine. I'm going to look at it tomorrow and will let you know the result. This is one coin that grades really do make a difference at $100 per grade. That's why I really appreciate the grading help string on CC.

At least this coin is fairly straight forward to grade. I have the most problems with those coins with weak strikes to consider as part of the grading process as well as the wear.

Again, thanks for the suggestions.

Jim, thanks for the input. I totally agree with you that I am buying the coin for the D/S and the grade though important is secondary. This should make my coin shop happy.

I bought the coin for $110. If you're interested I will post a picture. But first I need to figure out how get pictures posted, so it may be awhile (probably next week).
