In this case I think the Trueview pic is pretty accurate.

w/coinfrog

should have stayed with my original grade of MS65RD but I think the shadowing on the original photos caused me to drop it to 64 due to the shoulder but the TV doesn't show that flaw

65 seems fair after seeing the PCGS photos. I see at least 5+ bag marks, small black dot under LIB, some discoloration on the cheekbone and very slightly in the hair.

Beautiful cent though regardless. Congrats!

Terrible by PCGS, they have been all over the place. As BadThad has stated many times they seem to be protecting the high grades I would think ms66, or 66+ I would love to have in my collection. I have a ms65 no where near as good as this one from PCGS. And it's not even close!

I was thinking 66 as well.
I guess that blemish in front of Lincoln's mouth stood out to the grader since they don't generally see enlarged images to pick up on smaller ticks and nicks.

Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.
