65+1

 

I guessed 66. I wanted to guess 65.

 

66

 

Ms-67 rd

 

63RD this one seems really beat up

 

I'll say MS-64 by a tpg , too many hits on Lincolns face and body , nice color and luster might bump it up to a 64 , by ANA grading a 63 .

Not all, Doug. One is a die crack. Have fun with it. See you in October.

 

63. Obverse looks beat to **** to my untrained eyes.

 

Might as well guess one higher, apparently I have tougher standards than NGC and PCGS.

 

Too beat up for me to personally consider it a GEM, but I went with 65 anyway as I've been undergrading these things.

 

Again the reverse is pretty solid, but the obverse is a bit busy. There is a die crack on Abe's forehead, several planchet marks, and I can count 4 nicks (chin, collar and lapel). Ignoring the planchet marks, it is definitely a 66. Draw you own conclusions with them.

 

66 seems right

 

So this is the 2nd or third of these I've entered, and I've made private guesses on several others...

And I'm ALWAYS 1-3 points lower than PCGS

I almost think this is a good thing. *lol*

 

well then your just like Doug.
Keep trying and you'll get better.
It's all about learning.

 

Indeed...that's the fun of any hobby, imo. learning and improving your understanding of whatever it is
