<p>[QUOTE="TAS2826, post: 751039, member: 3805"]Thank you. I went back and looked at some guides for grading Lincolns and I would agree probably in the XF range and maybe, barely AU. Reason I lean more toward XF is the obverse has some significant wear. But I was definitely suprised by the wheat stalks on the reverse, they are in great shape. Thanks for the grade.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>No, no joke, serious. I know you don't know me from Adam, but serious. Believe me, I was as surprised as you. And, it photographed well. I did not doctor the image but for some reason it does not show the true color, it really is not quite that bright. I used incandescent lighting and no flash, but the color is more muted than the pics show. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Tell you what though, it's a great way to start back into collecting.:thumb:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>

No, no joke, serious. I know you don't know me from Adam, but serious. Believe me, I was as surprised as you. And, it photographed well.
