Knowing NGC gave the FH, I would give them (and the coin) the benefit of the doubt. That said, I'd like to see a photograph with the light at a...
Gorgeous coin and photographs!
p.p.s. VERY NICE COIN & thanks for sharing.

Like Mark, the photos have me scratching my head as to what this coin really looks like. That said, the coin appears to have mint state details...
I could be wrong, but I don't believe that ANACS will automatically slab them at the same grade. A quick call to ANACS customer service should be...

If I didn't know beter, I'd say that was a counterfeit... Admittedly, I don't look at many high-grade Lincoln's to have a strong feelings, and it...
