Guess the grade - 1995 Lincoln Double Die

Remember this coin?

Last summer we all discussed it and it's potential grade and after a bit of thought, I sent it to NGC. I got it back today and I want you all to guess the grade. (This time we have an answer!)

It looks like a PCGS holder, but I will guess MS67 Red. TC

 

Ms67rd

 

That is the raw coin in an airtite.

I would think that got a 67 and a 68 would be possible if those little spots are lighting or holder rather than the coin.

 

I would guess NGC MS 69 Red

 

68 rd

 

I'm new to the LMC series, but I'm going 67.

 

looks like a 68 red

 

what's the grade? ngc seems to always go 1 more than pcgs, so, 68 seems to be the highest from cointalk members, that's why I say! "69"

 

My guess MS 68 Red

 

ms-67

 

Do you have a 1995 lincoln with a dime on it? or is that a dime with a lincoln on it? never seen one of those, redwin117 ?

 

Oh god, don't get him started. MS 67 RD.

 

ok, here's the result!





drumroll!!!!!

 

congrats to Charmy (who graded it right away), Doug, rlmscents, leadfoot, abe, bahabully, and Raider34 who guessed correctly when the coin was raw.

congrats to TopCat, jello and Merc Crazy who got it right this time (from the exact same pictures as the first time)

I also want to congratulate rlmscents on making the exact same comment both times. You are either very consistent with your grading, or you looked at the original thread first. Knowing you what little I do, I would say that you're consistent. You have been in my experience a very consistent grader and particularly good at cents.

 

You forgot about little old me. LOL

Congrats! It's a sweet coin!

 

OH, gosh, I did, Thad!!! I am sooo sorry!!!

I swear I tried to get everyone!!!

and also BadThad got it right!!!!

 

I would have said 68 Red...

 

Thanks ! I saw what looked like some fine spots and thought 66. I see most of the guys got it right. I am improving though.
