    p.s. these S mint coins with worn dies have wonderful luster. I suspect that's why the coin graded 66 (or higher!). I'll wager it's stunning in-hand.

    I say 64rd Abe,s cheek is the only area of concern IMO.

    I'm saying NGC gave it a 67...
    It is a pretty clean coin.

    OK! It has a nick on his collar. It is actually <.03 inches long. I think I have reasonably good eyes. I cannot find it in hand. It is there with a loupe, but not without it. That reverse is about as nick free as they come. In hand it has more of a bullseye toning - not at all unpleasant. I have no problem with a 67.

    I have a feeling I would be winning this if I added one grade point to all of my guesses. :)

    So, in the case of a tie, the person with more guesses gets the nod? Seems fair.

    Been on the road the last 2 weeks guessing on poker hands and lost track.
    Did we start over? what # did we start at?
    Thanks

    The first 50 were unto themselves. See Guess #50 for the finals. These scores started at #39. Not sure whether this round will run for the next 50 starting at #39 or #50 or even possibly a running 50.
