1930-D Lincoln Cent For Grading

Still looks like a BN coin to me.

My limited experience with crossing ANACS to PCGS has given me the results of PCGS grading it at least the same as the old ANACS grade. The few I crossed were done the same way. I cracked and submitted raw ( very wise choice there). The few I did try this resulted in a higher grade than ANACS. again my observations are limited but it seems that PCGS is very strict on brown coins. I have seen only 1 getting a 66 grade. The coin is awesome and drserves a 66 but ms65 brn is my guess. I hope 66 for you or even 66+ good luck.

Unfortunately that's a coin I saw someone else cross and get a 66 brown. My experiences although limited seemed to be like a 64 red to 65 red and 63 red/brown to 64 brown. As others have stated they sometimes darken in the holder. This happened on a 1915 red brown I crossed to PCGS. Think of this and tell me your opinion, I had submitted later wheats and memorials that I checked and rechecked for over three months using a coin scope, a camera and a loupe over and over in addition to comparing to PCGS AND HA.COM PHOTOS. My coins stayed in Quality assurance for 9 days, two different submissions. A thought creeped into my head that some of my coins went from 67 to 66+ to keep populations low. The coins that stayed at 67 were not high value coins (although 150 to 250$). The higher value coins in 67 were 66+ (happened 6 times in 45 submissions) just wondering. I will post trueview pics compared to PCGS website pics of 67 coins. I am missing something?

Hey KY, Somehow, I either deleted it accidently or never received it. When I tried to email you, I am being told you do not wish to receive emails. Something in your profile has to be changed to receive emails. I had the hardest time trying to fix that on my profile. Please resend and I will respond directly. Would love to hear from you.

Sorry KY still didn't get it. wgianfala@yahoo.com? fix your profile and we can work backwards from there. Allow me to email you.

Well, I cracked this one, and it went ms65bn. Already had a solid one for the date but this one stomps on it.

At least one came back right!
