    I think this one is pretty tough. No clue on what NGC says. MS65, MS66, or MS67 wouldn't surprise me.

    Huh... another tough one for me. Gut instantly said 66, and my process of adding one would land me on 67... I definitely think the luster is there...
    but I can't tell if those are spots or lil' hits in the field in front of abe's head.... If they are only spots, then the obv is an easy contender for 67 imo.
    Very nice reverse also, but the eye was pulled to 3 things.
    1 - chatter on and around the O and N in 'one'.
    2 - looks like some copper is pealing away to the right of the right wheat
    3 - a potential hit on the bottom, in between T and E of 'united'
    ... anyway,, going to stick with the gut this time... 66.

    Wish I could tilt it back and forth to see the luster. LOL If it really, really cartwheels and glows it could get bumped up.

    66RD

    I can't pull the trigger yet.... wish I could twinkle it. Any chance to get more pic's w different light shots? (what's up at obv @6:30, etc).
    But I will vote 4 sure!

    Sorry, but what you see is what you get and I have no idea "what's up at obv @6:30, etc". I see nothing of note anywhere in that area.

    As someone else once said - "Luster rules" and I think this one looks lusterous. 67 all the way.

    Fields of a 66 or 67. I guessed 6 because of (an apparent) lack of blazing luster.

    A nice penny :thumb: But I see a few contact or bag marks that don't look so good ...So I would guess the grade of MS-64 RED at best.

    Again, 66 is not a mark free coin. There are no marks on this coin that are obvious in hand until you magnify everything. I have no problem calling this a 66.

    I will try to list the next coin tomorrow.
