Tough coin to grade..... I'll take a shot in the dark and say MS-62 BN.

 

Now I think that is a worn die which will make grading a little more difficult...I gave it a 58 and probably wayyyyy off.

 

oh boy... another one with weak strike. and this one really has markings above the ear and in the hard that should press the border between cabinet rub and wear.... anyway.. since I've seen so many of these pancakes in 63 pcgs, anacs and ngc holders.. I'll go 63.. then reverse my standard for the thing above the ear and in the hairs and say -1.... so 62 it is.

 

63.

 

And I thought the last photos were hard to grade from

Man, RLM, you're making this one HARD!

 

And I even retook the pictures. These are the better ones. Sorry. Pretty much what you do not see is not there.

 

Am I allowed to ask a question?

If so, am I seeing luster in TRUST?

How's the luster?

 

62

 

I'll go 62 .

You are seeing red in there, if that is what you mean. There are several splotches of red on the coin mostly on the obverse. Luster? For a brown coin, it is descent. Nothing like that 27-D.

 

I went 62BN cause I never see a 61 grade in lincolns from pcgs

 

Not the best 21-S I've seen, but definately MS.

 

will call it a 62 and hope for the best

 

C'mon Doug , that's why they call it a guess , I thought 58 and 63 went with 62 .

Ms-60

 

I am going to close this and http://www.cointalk.com/t154108/ tomorrow night.

 

I thought surely this one would catch you. It is a weak strike. It really is not too bad of a coin. There are few marks on it and most of the coin is fairly well struck. Just seemed to have a problem with the edges. Anyone have any ideas aside from struck through grease?

Anyway, nearly 50% guessed correctly that this was a 62. That amazes me.
