Well said bahabully. Like gijoe I pursue those top pops as well but the populations do change. When I acquired my 1963 Lincoln in MS67 the pop....
I've been collecting for 55+ years and naturally enough started with circulation finds - when you could actually find rare coins in circulation....
Welcome Aaron. Do you have any books on numismatics? If not, you should look into starting a reference library. Books will end up saving you...
At its very best that is a 63RB - probably less. I would return it and keep looking. It's a coin with a lot available in the eye-appealing...

Those envelopes, in all likelyhood, contain sulpher. Put them in milar - not PVC - flips. A small investment will become invaluable!
Thanks Rick, I was going to tell him I was collecting Lincolns before his father was born but I bit my tongue. He also doesn't realize my Lincoln...
Dusty, please disreguard xGAJx's comments. Lincolns compete with Morgan Dollars for the most collectable U.S. coin. I would suggest that you...
