Dick those light area on Lincolns face are the slab , correct ?

 

Correct. i meant to so something, but forgot. I have edited it in

 

Dang near pefect, comes down to luster.

 

66

 

67

 

Ms67 rd

 

66, cant get over the cheeks

 

Definitely a 67 at NGC , I'm thinking 67 at PCGS too .

 

Is this the mystical 67 at PCGS? I sure wanted to guess 67, but whimped out and guessed 66.

 

I went for a 67 on this one. From what I gathered the luster is nice with nil distracting marks. I'll go out on a limb and think NGC would go 67 than PCGS would.

 

This and http://www.cointalk.com/t209867/ will be ending tonight.

 

Great looking coin! Excellent strike, nice luster, but can't get past the check and temple. With PCGS being stingy with the 67, I'm banking on 66.

 

You're probably right , I've been getting killed giving the extra point . But last week got killed not giving it . Go figure . lol But PCGS is certainly more stingy with their 67 than NGC .

 

Totally agree with you. The +1, -1, PCGS vs NGC debate is alive and well.

 

MS-66 RD, dings on Lincoln's nose and in the fields of the reverse are what's holding it back from a 67 RD.

 

Sorry about the slab, but the marks would not polish out. Anyway, nice luster and a dead solid strike. The only ticks I can see are minute and I mean I have to look hard for them with a loupe. And, yes, PGCS did give this a 67.

 

WOW! that is all I can say!
