What do you thik. Guy is asking 64RD money but I tend to agree its not an RB coin. No Return policy and the mark at 3:00 makes it a 65 at best. Do you think it could go 65RD on a regrade?
I dunno. If i felt that strongly about it, and the increase between grades was over a grand, i would submit it atleast a few times to try and get that 65RD grade. His no return policy is a MAJOR turn off & that nick at 3oclock is HORRID!

i think he's right about the red brown designation. I've seen darker Lincolns with the Red designation. Maybe a 65. I think my 09P VDB that graded 64 is better than that one. Just my opinion.
If you want one of those "RARE" 09SVDBs in MS 65 for $2000 plus you might just wait. Ebay sells a couple dozen of them each month. Unless you have all the rest in MS65 RD and just want to finish the set.

Actually they don't sell high grade red slabbed ones that often. 2 NGC's and 1 PCGS in the last month and one of the NGC's did not hit the reserve so did not sell.
The one thing that keeps nabbing at me is the seller states he does not have time to resubmit. Huh? For $50 he could have submitted it as the auction started and got the results back before it ended. I think it probably goes 64RD in todays climate and is thus the reason he is giving the apearance of leaving a little on the table. A 64RD sold for $2200 on ebay this last month.
defnitely NOT a 65, in fact, i'd say it's tapped out at 64. 1909 is a well-struck year - that 1 is weak. distracting mark in right obv field & on chin, & i suspect the image has been "improved" just slightly.

That should have been a red to begin with.IMHO it will with regrade or send it in for review.

2300 is maxed out imo.
