Lincoln photo

I got tired of studying and picked up a mint set I had in my room. I generally do not bust them but I saw a nice lincoln so I had to free it (only to jail it in an airtite bwahahahaha). So here are the pics. It is exceptionally nice and has loads of luster (even though the pics dont show it). Any scratches you see on the reverse are on the airtite.

    I like it. Even a nice bold knot on the tie. 68...

    Im really new at grading but I would guess ms68? The reverse strike looks a little weaker than the front but it could be the lighting or a little photo blurriness. Also looks like some small nicks toward the top of Lincolns head, but I cant consistently find one in all 3 pics..?

    Also I know it wouldn't affect grade except for maybe eye appeal, but what causes that slight bubbling I sometimes see on LCs?

  • Probably 68. I agree, from the pics the reverse looks a little weaker.

    I assure you that the reverse is strong. It was just hard to take the pic.

    I'd be looking for 68 on a submission, gonna give it a shot?

    Not really. Though I am selling it over on the BST board for $6.
