<p>[QUOTE="WingedLiberty, post: 2159146, member: 26030"]Here is the obverse and reverse pairing of the 1926 Lincoln. I suppose you could make a case that the reverse is only an MS62, but I think the obverse is at least an MS64 (or perhaps even MS65) so maybe a net MS63 or MS64 combined would have been about right. I still say this is undergraded in sum total as an MS62. To justify an MS62 total grade, PCGS must have seen the obverse as MS63 and the reverse as MS61 -- and I do question that. I have seen much worse looking Lincolns graded MS64 by PCGS. And this coin has nary a carbon spot, which often plague early Mint State Lincolns. Well in any case, that's just my opinion. I would be snapping up MS62BN Lincolns that looked like this one all day long!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://mindstar.com/cointalk_photos/TVBlack_1926_MS62BN.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
