There are no corresponding dings in the fields adjacent to the marks, they appear to be confined to the raised parts of the coin. Since those parts of the coin are concave in the die, they are not likely to be on the die either, so they may just be incomplete strike, grease or debris in the die, or something else I am not certain. I do not claim to know enough to make a declaration. Also something to note is that Lincolns typically have more grading emphasis put on the obverse. Like I originally said at the top of the thread, I believe it is graded correctly, but we all know that grading is subjective.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
