shantiom Pillar of the Community United States 522 Posts	Posted 01/25/2021 01:46 am I paid 10 cents for this education is how I look at it but the loss of the high grade does hurt. Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19964 Posts	Posted 01/25/2021 5:44 pm It's a very nice example. The "lines" are a normal for a weakly struck zinc. 65RD, shot at 66 with strong luster and eye appeal. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
Diy89Nurm7 Valued Member United States 271 Posts	Posted 01/27/2021 12:51 am Also see a few nicks such as above ONE CENT and on forehead and cheek, and spots above LIBERTY. Could be 64 or 65 depending on luster and grader mood. Stay well, Diy89Nurm7 Report this Post to the Staff
