What do you think it will grade at? Photograding is as much a guess as anything. There's NO substitute for having a coin in hand.
I think that she's an all day 65... if I get lucky they may 66 it because of the color on the obv I was unable to get photographed.
My first impression is 66RB,because of the great looking obverse. I am wondering though about all the black spotting on the reverse.(looks like someone was having a pretty long conversation over the coin) Also what is the spot on the reverse on the back side of the E in ONE. I think these things along with the minor fingerprint may keep it to a 65. Still an awesome looking coin.
Matt, without reading any of the above replies I think it could be a MS-66 RED or RD BRN. What is all that activity at Lincoln's front face. Clashes or.... I love that cent.
I should know the grade on this piece in the next day or so... hopefully sooner... get your last guesses in.
Sharp and fully struck. The fields look clean. I'll say 65RB. If it is as I said plus extreme luster it may go 66RB...not a common grade.
Wow... well I have to say that I am quite amazed. This coin was bagged to "Artifical color"... I have to say that I whole-heartedly disagree with the assessment of this coin. This coin has some super original album toning on the obverse... NGC has really puckered up lately. Wow... I'm kinda speechless. I will be sending it to PCGS.
NGC is being just crazy the past year with their artificial color kick! I've had quite a few come back that there was NO WAY and so has my dealer. I call BS on NGC for doing this...repeatedly. I willing to bet PCGS slabs that coin!
