    Hey folks,

    This handsome fella is off to PCGS next week.
    What do you think it will come back as? :rolleyes:
    I will keep my opinion to myself for now as not to influence anyone's evaluation.

    Proof? If that's the case I'll say PF65RB, there's a couple hits on the jacket but otherwise attractive.

    I am going to have to say MS-65 also. Too bad it is not full red and it might get a 66.

    I don't know too much about Lincoln's because those little suckers give me headaches, but it doesn't look like a proof. The obverse rim is too uneven. You just can't help seeing the marks on the shoulder, so I'm going along with the 65RB.

    It's tough to tell the luster on the obverse, but I would also agree with 65 (RB)...love that satiny look of the reverse! Stunning coin (as usual :) )!

    I'll guess that you get MS65RB. It could be a contender for a higher grade but I suspect the three ticks on the coat will prevent it from getting more than a 65.8 :D

    It is a beautiful coin & as usual your photos are awesome.

    Coin Looks way better than 65 to me, I would wager MS66RB to be safe, but I really wanted to say 67. I'm sure you would all laugh at me though...

    I think ms 65 but looks like it had some kind of print on it.. on the obverse.. but that could just be toning.. well jolly good one I suppose.. good luck on this
