scotty11 Pillar of the Community United States 1042 Posts	Posted 12/31/2010 11:30 pm CDN shows a huge jump between VF and EF for this coin, and it doubles again for AU. In hand, this coin looks EF-40 to me. Report this Post to the Staff

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 12/31/2010 11:56 pm Would probably go EF45 if not for the spotting. I would net it down to EF40. Report this Post to the Staff
scotty11 Pillar of the Community United States 1042 Posts	Posted 01/01/2011 01:11 am Thanks again coppercoins, everything I see about this coin tells me that it should grade EF. Can you, or anybody else tell me why there's such a huge jump in the price from VF to EF with CDN? ask price for VF is .50...EF is 3.50 In my opinion, that's one heck of a huge difference.

While this date is not especially rare, it is slightly more scarce in higher grades. There is a huge demand for early Lincolns that are EF and above. Report this Post to the Staff
scotty11 Pillar of the Community United States 1042 Posts	Posted 01/01/2011 03:00 am Thanks cwb8539, your explaination makes perfect sense. I guess I'm having a tough time wrapping my brain around the fact that someone would toss a coin like this back into circulation. lol I need to keep reminding myself that not everyone enjoys searching/hunting/finding Lincolns the same way that I do.

cwb1877 Pillar of the Community United States 1659 Posts	Posted 01/01/2011 05:07 am If you look at Numismedia and scroll through the dates, you'll notice that just about all pre-1934 Lincolns make significant jumps in price from VF to EF. It seems to be pretty popular to build Lincoln sets that are MS from 1934 and on while keeping pre-34 dates in the EF/AU range since there are a number of pre-34 dates that get incredibly expensive in MS grades.
