What do ya think? I've had this coin awhile. The white spots are on the slab.

modern Lincolns are so ugly to me. I mean they didn't put ANY effort to make obverse. Just drew something that looks like a Lincoln. The coin is so flat it seems like there was no pressure applied. The nose is huge together with date and mm's are. I really don't like those new ones(starting after ''82)

You can find some really nice zincolns out there. I have a few that I just love. Most are flat like you mention, but like I said, you can find some really nice detail on some.

Do you mean what it grades or what it was slabbed at ?

the coin shows die polish lines making it far less than an EDS coin but also far from unusual for the LMC's the coin has what looks like very few hits or other also very normal for the series distractions other than the polish lines ,

The coin based on the photo's is a lock for 66 but in the slab I would bet it took at least a one point jump for the plastic market standards of the TPG's

ceaton and BadThad nailed it. The coin is very nice in hand. The picture does not show it very clearly but just left of ONE, there is a small carbon spot. I wonder if this was there prior to being slabbed which I'm sure accounted for the 68RD grade. It also has minor planchet imperfections under a loupe.
