Okay, so here goes my perplexity at the world of coin grading. Several months ago I posted pics of a 1924S Indian/Buffalo nickel. Opinions...
I'm always open to trades too. Of interest are AU or MS Lincoln wheat cents (can give years and MM's upon request). I am well on my way...
In 1986 my dear Grandfather passed away from a massive stroke. While I'm adopted, he never treated me any different than if I was his biological...
So I ran across this 15-s lincoln. While my horrible pictures don't show it, there is still luster and the mint frost. Beside the point though....
