You need to crop photos before posting them please...thanks. What reference site did you use? No need to post the same pic twice,it uses up space on CCFs' server. I do not see a DDR with these pics. John1  |

Hi and Merry Christmas!! They aren't actually the same photo, I moved the light around trying to get better pics. DD's not really important to me, last photo (light doubling) got me looking at DDs for the year. Beating the current high MS68 when I submit it is :). Everything other than the nics to the rim are die scratches and breaks. http://www.varietyvista.com/01c%20L...4%20cent.htm   |

I'd call this MS-66 RD, slight chance at 67, but certainly not 68.

This is what keeps me coming back to this hobby, details. Right here is why I think my coin will get at least 68. Mine has SLIGHTLY more detail overall but the focal point (hear/head) is sharper then most of the 68s on PCGS. 68 from PCGS:  Mine:  |

WADR, I'd have to disagree. Strike is just one of the factors evaluated in determining a grade. Several of your shots show a very clean, lustrous example, but this one shows a few points that IMO will hold this one back. Also appears to have a light scratch running across the steps on the reverse, big focal point. If you send it in, definitely post results.  |

I definitely will, and I like the taste of crow, I eat it almost everyday from my wife LOL. That said, my photo skills suck, those are all either die scratches or breaks. Here's the 1 under the T:  |

It is not DDR-004 and not a bar on column at all. No DDR,and I am not good at grading but for sure not a MS68. John1 |

Grade wise, I'd go with MS66+, possibly 67. A few light rim dings are present too. Nice coin--worthy of a Dansco.
