So how much of the weakness seen is from a late stage die vs actual wear? By the way, first time I'm posting photos that were downsized using PIXLR. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 05/01/2022 2:19 pm Agree, often a tough date to evaluate. Clearly worn dies on both sides. I'll say EF45 or better. Report this Post to the Staff
mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2953 Posts	Posted 05/01/2022 3:58 pm This one might even nudge an AU-50. These are one of my favorite Lincoln dates to collect. I have a few that are in the better shape that look quite worn. Yours looks more like die wear to get that appearance. Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18649 Posts	Posted 05/02/2022 08:34 am the sharpest device we see is the date itself. I would say XF45 area one area of note is the area below AMERICA. there are way to many hairlines in this area and it appears the toning has been removed which we dont see anywhere else on the coin Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5663 Posts	Posted 05/02/2022 5:25 pm Thanks everyone. I was also thinking in the XF/AU range. Not sure what that area is under AMERICA. Magnification does appear to show some very fine hairlines there, but it's pretty subtle. Report this Post to the Staff
