Apologies in the lighting, I'm in a tough place for lighting.

(It's in a NNC slab, I don't want to crack it open just yet so there are glares)

As you know,NNC is not a trusted grader. What grade did they give it?

Some woodgraining on the obverse! Looks like a nice coin for a basement slab.

65RB

So far it looks like they are at least 2 grades too high.

quiet a bit of glare may be masking surfaces.

MS67 is way high imo

MS64 possibly MS65RD not sure of color due to glare could be RB.
if you could repost without overhead light would help

Lighting makes the coin look full red. MS-65RB.

No one will be able to accurately grade it until you unslab it. It might not even be MS.

Is the color accurate? Not much luster on the obverse. Based on the photos alone, I'd be concerned that it might be recolored. Otherwise, MS64/65 RB seems about right.

I had 4 early teen Lincolns that I cracked out of NNC slabs and submitted to PCGS. Of the 4 , I think two went up a point one stayed the same and one went up a point but went from Red to Red-Brown. The coin looks very good but PCGS won't give you a ms-67 in my humble opinion just because they are PCGS. It just seems that PCGS will keep the numbers low. I had two very interesting conversations last week at the FUN Show in Orlando FL. Both dealers had tables full of graded Lincolns and claim they submit Lincolns very often (like hundreds and hundreds a year). Both told me what most think about PCGS seems to be true. This will be for a later thread. This is only referring to Lincolns.




Lincolns, I can't speak about other denominations
