1929- A PCGS slabbed NOTE: If you don't vote in the poll, your vote will not be counted This round is going to be a little different. Here are three :devil: 1929- Lincolns all graded by PCGS. Maybe this will help you guess or maybe it will get in your way. I recommend that you look at all three threads before guessing. BTW, I am not saying that these are or are not the same grade.
There is no poll. Haven't looked at other threads like you recommended, but... MS-63? Edit: Nevermind, the poll is there now.
Looks like at least a 65 to me, so I guessed 65. The spots in the right obverse fields have me worried that I may have overgraded.
I've started a new tactic. I figure out what my initial impression is and add two. So MS64 becomes MS66.
I would suggest that you stand 5' away from your monitor. It is a common mistake to overstate the impact of relatively tiny marks on the coin and undergrade as a result. Remember modern graders often don't even take out a magnifying glass, and these pictures are more than 5x.
I will be ending these thread tonight - http://www.cointalk.com/t119933/, http://www.cointalk.com/t119934/, & http://www.cointalk.com/t119935/
All 3 of these have great luster. The hits (more like rubs) in the right obverse field are much less obvious in hand. I thought it funny that more people guessed 66 and more guessed 64 than guessed 65. All-in-all, I think this is a nice 65.
