Your coin is considered a full BIE and carry's a small premium over face value but as mentioned it's not worth getting it graded, it is not an uncommon error.


Keep in mind this is THE BIE, the biggest in the whole Lincoln Series, and it is an RPM as well. If there is one BIE to own, this would be the one. I've seen quite a few of these slabbed, but as with most coins of this era, the grade must be pretty high to justify the cost.

Can't argue, but 63RD would be tops on this coin given the abrasion in front of the nose.

So I wanted to add pics to this, I'm not happy with the way the coin looks in the original pics, I tried to capture the true color to it, I guess they call this a red color?

A gray background is better than yellow. It is either 14 or 18% gray scale.
