I'm not sure whether or not I see rub on Lincoln's cheekbone and above his ear. It's hard to tell.
If that is not rub...MS64BN
If it is rub...AU58
I'm not usually too crazy about woodies, but this one is exceptionally eye appealing. I love the colors!

Wouldn't it be considered a red/brown? John1

Is that a ding in the field directly in front of Abe's mouth?
I consider it a MS63RB

That is a beaut! Assuming no rub on the cheek, I give it a 65.

Nope, no rubs, this coin is 100% MS. I've graded it MS-65 BN. I don't think it would pass a TPG as RB. Thanks everyone!

The obverse is really clean and I am not seeing many hits at all. The reverse has a few hits here and there.
I think MS65BN is good grade for this coin.
Love it.

Thanks Jim! The camera makes the hits look worse than they really are. The reverse field ticks are very minor in hand. What sold me on this coin was the incredible detail on the obverse. Reminds of the Kenndy "heavily accented hair"....the hair on this thing is just hammered....even the side-burns are detailed. I think if the beard looked like a 1916 I would have peed. LOL
