63
Looks good to my eye, but I am not an expert in the series and there are some very deceptive fakes of this coin. I would send it to PCGS or NGC...
I'd like to think I'm a pretty good grader. However, the ability to distinguish MS/PR 69 from MS/PR 70 is apparently beyond my skill level. Read...
25. Nice coin...and I should be so lucky! :)
p.s. you don't need any help grading. :hail: :D
65 all day long and an above average strike for the issue (I'd say 85% percentile at least).
Errors aren't my thing. Cool coins nonetheless! That conder token is very neat! I love some of the designs on these coins, and that one is both...

I think it's die wear -- that's a high-stress spot in the die. I can't recall seeing a Lincoln with die rust. Hmmm.....
As an aside, take into consideration the master die from these early years had so much more detail than later. LOOK AT THE BEARD! You never see...
Mark, Planchets from the early years have a very different look from latter years. Sometime in the late 40's I would guess they changed the way...
Trying to make it closer? I guessed 64. Coin looks really clean, but I suspect PCGS knocked it down for its overall look.
Ms 70!
63 is my vote. 62 would not surprise me. Clean coin, spots limit grade. Look at the O!
Johnny, You can do better. It's going to take patience -- this is a VERY hard type to find nice, in my experience.
The feeling is mutal. :) Gotta run now, will be back on later tonight....
