Russ Lee New Member United States 13 Posts	Posted 11/28/2024 1:05 pm Good morning, I came across this penny while filling folders last night. The red brightness matches the MS 76 when I hold it next to the chart, but there are a couple scratches or smudges on the front. Two of the pictures are with the light off on the iPhone.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19122 Posts	Posted 11/28/2024 1:16 pm Nice example. Given the pics posted, it likely falls in the MS63-65 range Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73747 Posts	Posted 11/28/2024 1:20 pm Maybe MS-63? Need clearer pictures to grade accurately. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Russ Lee New Member United States 13 Posts	Posted 12/02/2024 7:56 pm Hondo, that was a case of dyslexia... 67. I found a color brightness scale on a link from the pcgs website. The next time I fire up the laptop I'll paste it here. Using the wife's android tablet right now, and I speak ipad... I put it in the folder. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 12/02/2024 8:00 pm Looking over all the images, especially the first one, definitely not a 67. I'm at 65 tops. Report this Post to the Staff
