[QUOTE="Insider, post: 8442902, member: 24314"]To the best of my knowledge, the letters in "Liberty" have NEVER been a consideration when grading Lincoln cents. I'm just passing on information as to what the professional graders and dealers do. I am no fan of raising a coin's ACTUAL CONDITION OF PRESERVATION for any reason. IMHO, only the coin's [SIZE=6][COLOR=#006633]PRICE [/COLOR][/SIZE]should change up or down for strike, eye appeal, damage, etc. Want to see what I mean? Take a look at a the over :vomit:graded [COLOR=#99ccff]beau[/COLOR][COLOR=#cc99ff]tifully[/COLOR][COLOR=#8000ff] toned[/COLOR] [COLOR=#660066]Type[/COLOR] coins graded MS-67 on up on the market. :sour:[/QUOTE]
