[QUOTE="bhp3rd, post: 498257, member: 16510"][b]I will chanllenge you on that,[/b] I would easily be willing to challenge you on this particular coin - heck we might all learn something. Plus, I don't mind being wrong in the least! I don't know how we will do it but I am 99% certain this coin is either AU-55 or better with roll rub and if I had to go out on a limb maybe a (not very nice) MS-62, or 3 (would need better photos for that). You should know by now that grading is very subjective and full of all types of variables but if there is anyway to do it I will be willing to call your hand on this one with the only reservation being of course I have not seen the coin - so I have no idea how we will do it??? Yes, there is technical grading, market grading, census grading and about three hundred more type of grading that I am to lazy to list. But I do not grade coins by the book - I grade the coin by the coin because in the long run, that is the only thing that matters. Ben Peters, Die variety specialist and Lincoln Cent specialist for over 20 years now, and, as y'all may know by now "Home of The Knoxville Coin Show" Best and longest running monthly coin show in the south![/QUOTE]
