upstate Pillar of the Community United States 3283 Posts	Posted 01/22/2011 10:39 pm MS 62 is my guess. The fields are super clean but the hit on the cheek is in a bad spot. I believe that is a wicked finger print on the reverse; and I don't know how that would affect the grade but I think it would be a distraction/deduction. Sweet coin overall.

Let the record also show that the aformentioned fingerprint is not mine. I found this one inside the last bag of wheats that I bought. Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19949 Posts	Posted 01/22/2011 11:41 pm Too bad about the print, it's actually a pretty nice coin. Is the print very bad in hand? MS-63 but I could go 64 if the luster rocks and the print is weaker in hand. Sometimes pics really bring out the worst. Lincoln Cent Lover!

Sometimes pics really bring out the worst. You're right Thad, the photo really shows the print. Even with my glasses on I have trouble seeing it. Then again, I'm 48 years old and need my glasses for just about everything I do. Report this Post to the Staff

cwb1877 Pillar of the Community United States 1659 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 10:47 pm I'll go with 64RD. I think it would be a 65 were it not for the fingerprint. Report this Post to the Staff
soccerdad Valued Member Canada 311 Posts	Posted 01/29/2011 12:03 am I would grade coin MS-62. Are you sure that is a fingerprint? All the lines seem to be in 2 directions. Nice coin. Report this Post to the Staff
