TheColorofMoney Valued Member United States 127 Posts	Posted 08/15/2022 08:50 am It has been Result: 2 days, 1 hour, 5 minutes and 47 seconds since I posted this coin, so I am now closing it out. CCF members disagreed with PCGS by quite a bit on this one. PCGS MS 64 RD CAC agrees with PCGS I have never seen PCGS discount a grade due to carbon spots on a mint state Lincoln; I have only seen PCGS lower grades on Proofs when a bad carbon spot is present (or was partially removed). Overall, because of the carbon "haze" I can see why, under the current lighting, this one appears RB. Myself, I would not purchase this one due to the carbon. However, I think it might be possible for a "surface doctor" to conserve this one to more money\a higher grade. Edited by TheColorofMoney 08/15/2022 09:17 am Report this Post to the Staff
