Could go 66 but I'm gonna guess MS65. My guess might be way off as I don't have any experience grading Lincolns
Not mushy, just worn out master dies. Abe pretty much lost his beard by the end of the 30's and it continued down hill thereafter.
Well, it looks like there are plenty of dings along the brow, especially one that looks like an 'X' right in the center of his head. So, I'm a conservative grader: MS64RD
What Red Book you got? Mine only lists 65 as $1 or $0.50. Now NGC lists it as $630. I assure you, I paid a lot less.
