Is This a MS67...?

I think that it might be. Common date widget that I liked:

No.

66RB. just a guess but if you really want to know for sure crack it and sent it in.

Not a chance

67's need to have radiant luster and near-perfect surfaces under a 5x glass.

This example doesn't make it, I'm afraid to say.

All I see is a red X. Might be an MS70 red X for all I know...

Alright, I think that my photo may be underexposed somewhat...still working out the technique.

Same coin, different photo (Teletrade photo). MS67 Now?

OOOOH. Now I see a carbon spot at 7 o'clock reverse. The kiss of death.

I give it a XF-45 but what do i know..I put things on here that are in the books and everyone says they are nothing...Oh Well

No. I agree about the carbon spot.

<< <i>I give it a XF-45 but what do i know..I put things on here that are in the books and everyone says they are nothing...Oh Well >>

I post these photos because I find the constructive criticism helpful...As far as this coin is concerned, I like it, paid very little for it, and don't really care if it grades a 67 or not. Yes, there are some that will bash your coin because that's there MO...I really don't care about that either.

MS66 RD with a shot at a 67 (although the carbon spot does make it a longshot).

I'd be interested in seeing a PCGS graded 67 wheat...someone post for comparison sake.

I was only joking with you,thats a great looking penny and at least a MS-66 - MS-67

OneCent · December 7, 2006 1:24PM

Yeah, I know you were joking Big. I qouted you because I understand exactly what you were saying in your post. It's not easy being a new guy on this board...lot of experts that have been collecting/dealing forever.

Thanks for the compliment on the wheatie!

I think the spot will keep it in 66rd, but I've got a 38-D with spots everywhere in a 67rd, you never know. When I get time I'm sending the 38-d for a downgrade, I am to embarrassed to even try and sell on ebay.

just doesn't have the flash

Here is a link to an NGCF 67 Rd.

Your technique is coming along great.
That doesn't look 67 to me.

One Last Photo of the Obverse...

66RD, or maybe...

While the coins appears to be quite beautiful in color and luster it isn't close to a 67 in my book. From the photos the detail in Abe's hair and beard aslo appears to be weak.
