Scottishmoney Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 How would you grade this Lincoln? Came out of an original roll of 1923's discovered in a safe, there were many high graded coins in this roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vfox Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 I give it a 66 because of a few marks here and there, but I would like to add the * designation lol. Nice coin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiho Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Looks MS66 to me, and that's probably what PCGS graded it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottishmoney Posted June 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 For the record, this coin was one of about 10-15 examples from an original bank roll that was discovered in the Eastern US, that certified 65 or 66, but this piece is indeed a mere 65 on the PCGS holder, but I didn't buy it for the holder, I like the nice original mint bloom on it, the lustre is amazing. It has become one of those seemingly ordinary coins, that amazes one because of it's state of preservation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Charlie Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 According to PCGS's rigorous grading standards that is an MS65. Although if by some coincidence it was graded by a grader who liked wheat cents it could have been MS66. I'll just go with MS65. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
