Hi, Just found this while searching through some newly acquired wheats, 3 cents each. opinions? Im pretty pumped as of now, It seems to have all the diagnostics of a Die #2 No D. hope these pictures are good enough. There is no rotation, the second 2 is sharper than the first, "we" is slightly mushy, and "Liberty" is snug against the rim.
Nice find , your lucks been good lately , looks to be in decent condition too . Now to hear from Arizona annd RLM , and all the other Lincoln experts . rzage
Do you have any idea how many rolls I looked through back in the 50's and I never found one of these. Not even knew anyone who found one and that was when you could find such things in circulation. Now I have seen 2 people find them 30 years after old Lincolns disappeared from circulation. Everything I see says it is real. Maybe VF30. I assume that you have checked it with Lincolncentresource.com.
you assume correct. My luck has definitly been up lately. I cant even believe it. I put it at F-VF 20 though.. extremely weak struck RLM?
I'd put it at VF, the seperation in the cheek, and the grains in the stalks on the back, show (atleast to me, lol) it's atleast a VF, just weakly struck IMHO. Congrats on it man!!! :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: Phoenix
wow. nice find!! Its much nicer than my example. I'm drooling..lol. I considered mine a good find, but it pales in comparison to this one. The only thing that I can't tell is if the L is merging with the rim? Definitely VF!
Thanks Johnny! Yes the L is merging with the Rim. quite noticeably in hand. Off to PCGS with this one.
It was hard to tell from your pics, but are you sure that coin has not been cleaned? If it has been, ICG or ANACS would be better.
WOW SNAZ! That is great! It looks like a good No D to me. (of course the experts might not agree). Do you plan to get it graded and slabbed? Wow, again! jeankay
yes I plan on sending it away.. then getting rid of it. I'm going to need as much money as I can get my hands on for the move. Ill send in this and the 16 D I posted a little while back.
