I'm not confident with High Grade, but here it goes. MS65 RD. Reverse is great, obverse has smudge and small hit by nose.

I'm guessing 64RD but the color on '26-S Lincolns seems to always be in question.

Hmmm...if I am the seller, MS65. If I am the buyer, strong VF35, not quite XF! :)

It could be just the lighting, but it looks cleaned to me.

If it's not cleaned, I'd say 63RD. The luster looks too dull for a 64.

Heck, even a 63RB is worth some serious cash! Is it raw? (I think I see the edge of a 2x2 in the obverse pic) If this one isn't certified, it would be worth sending in (if not cleaned of course).

Although PCGS may have got it wrong, that's a MS-66RD.

As I've heard on this forum many times, high grades are all about the luster. Since the coin is not radiating that luster, I would give it an MS64 RD. Otherwise it would probably go at least MS66.

I really underestimated that one.

It's worth some big bucks, that's for sure! Did they give it RD or RB?

Numismedia 65RB - $5,160
65RD - $97,500

I'll help Thad out here with the slab pic. Since PCGS has only graded 1 1926-S Lincoln MS65RD and it sold on Heritage a couple years ago for $106K+, here she is:
