KerryKz Pillar of the Community United States 586 Posts	Posted 12/09/2023 08:18 am Just can't quite get over how clean and the color on this coin! Just bright. Some of the back looks weak. Or a bit mushed. Was just looking for opinions on grading Adding a few pics on without so much glare Edited by KerryKz 12/10/2023 12:46 am Report this Post to the Staff

DOCC Pillar of the Community United States 1502 Posts	Posted 12/09/2023 09:36 am Nice Lincoln. Hard to be certain with the glare but I see possible wear on high spots (cheek, wheat stalk). I'd say high AU 55-58 - is that a hit on the reverse O or grease/strike? Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 12/09/2023 09:37 am I'll say MS-63RB. Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36741 Posts	Posted 12/09/2023 09:39 am The center photo makes the coin look cleaned but the others don't. MS-64RB. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18662 Posts	Posted 12/09/2023 09:53 am lighting on 1,2 & 4 are altering the look of the surfaces. photo 3 I'm betting is what the coin looks like in hand. would like reverse photo using the same setup. without that its difficult to call AU or MS. worst case AU58 imo. I can see it higher than MS62 if its MS as all the luster is gone. Report this Post to the Staff
MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 2003 Posts	Posted 12/09/2023 2:48 pm Looks like the slightest of rubs on the cheek, upper jaw and on the left wheat. From these pics I would say high AU. Report this Post to the Staff

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 12/09/2023 7:06 pm Realistically, it's probably a high AU cleaned piece. Market wise, it would probably straight grade low MS (excepting for CACG). ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74064 Posts	Posted 12/09/2023 11:08 pm I'll go with AU. There seems to be light circulation wear, on the cheek. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 12/09/2023 11:09 pm Report this Post to the Staff
KerryKz Pillar of the Community United States 586 Posts	Posted 12/10/2023 12:39 am I can't seem to get a decent pic that shows the actual coin without glare...I shall try to get a few clearer ones Report this Post to the Staff
