upstate Pillar of the Community United States 3283 Posts	Posted 06/13/2011 12:58 am I'm not sure if that amount of wear on the cheek, hair and ear takes it out of AU but with that amount of underlying red I'm going with AU53 Report this Post to the Staff
zachlovessix Valued Member United States 72 Posts	Posted 06/13/2011 01:06 am Upstate--I know what you are saying about the wear on the cheek, it looks a lot better in person then in the photo as far as that wear goes anyway. thanks for the input! Report this Post to the Staff
upstate Pillar of the Community United States 3283 Posts	Posted 06/13/2011 04:52 am When you blow them up like that every little thing shows. The shine on the high spots my just be that. You can say a ton about what is right about this coin. Nearly hit free reverse, clean bow tie, nice strike shown in the hair and lapel. It wouldn't surprise me if Brad chimed in and deemed it a MS coin (and he would be right). Sweet high grade early Denver Lincoln. Report this Post to the Staff
SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 06/13/2011 05:18 am Nice reverse, obverse, too many light scratches too much wear over the ear and cheek. AU-50 Report this Post to the Staff
acloco Pillar of the Community United States 3540 Posts	Posted 06/13/2011 09:08 am Gorgeous coin. Reverse could go 62/63. Obverse, high AU with a shot at MS60/61. Report this Post to the Staff
Adam_E Pillar of the Community United States 4846 Posts	Posted 06/13/2011 09:52 am those are definetly rubs on the ear, cheek, and hair. if it were just a weak strike, there would still be luster present, which there is not. Report this Post to the Staff
zachlovessix Valued Member United States 72 Posts	Posted 06/13/2011 10:03 am Yeah, I'm happy with it being AU50, I'm trying to complete the LWC series in VF20+ so this will fit in just fine! Its just hard to get over how much original color this coin has Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19960 Posts	Posted 06/13/2011 10:51 am Appears to have some slight rub, the pics are a bit out of focus. AN-55/58 Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
cwb1877 Pillar of the Community United States 1659 Posts	Posted 06/14/2011 02:25 am I'd say AU55. It's got a great reverse. Obverse looks like it has a fair amount of chatter. Still a great coin! Report this Post to the Staff
