Take a Shot at Grading the Lincoln Cents.

Fairlaneman

Just like the Indians I put up I need a little help with Grading Lincoln Cents. These will also be for my Grand Daughters in a few years. I would like to send them to PCGS for grading at a later date. My thoughts are that they are in the MS 64 or 65 range. Color designation does not make a whole bunch of difference to me. I hope the pictures are clear enough for you to see the coins correctly.

Added a different picture of the 1909. Is it better?

Thanks.

Both look like 65/64BN to me.

Too dark for me to judge.

63 BN and 64 BN. Both mid/ mid late obverse dies.

65 RB and 64 RB

Probably 64RB and 63RB. Pictures are kind of dark. The second one has a troubling green splotch at 12:00 on the reverse. The two marks near Lincoln's eyebrow and TMJ on that piece aren't doing it any favors, either.

Ken,

My guess is 64 give or take. Imaged show too dark on my screen.

As said, too dark to judge accurately but looks 64-65 range as enough luster on both to potentially warrant gem status. Enough red to get RB on both. Second might get bagged due to pvc. Good luck!

65/64RB feels about right to me.

I'll bet the green splotch at 12k is verdigris and it could be cleaned up easily with VerdiCare. I wouldn't submit it for grading until it's treated.

Thanks to everyone for the comments and the suggestions to clean up the one coin. Probably will join the Collectors Club in December or January and will try to remember to send these two coins in.

I will guess 65bn for the first one and 64rb for the second one. Get rid of the green stuff on the reverse of the second coin ASAP
