1932 U.s. Caramel Abraham Lincoln

Still presentable but there is quite a bit of surface, corner, and edge wear on this one.

A lot for the eye to digest on this card with the obvious flaws that stand out. Even with the flaws the card does still have decent eye appeal. The miscut back really keeps this card from grading any higher.

Wear that is in line with the C tier yet luckily it all avoids Abe so he can be enjoyed. Centering is also nice. Rare to see this in blue!

This is for me what the C tier is for: the card has clear issues and yet it is not like there is a crease through his face or massive front paper loss, so I can still enjoy the image. The number system will say F but to me it is clearly better by a few grades, hence C. Been talking a lot with fellow members here how this just seems much more fair, especially with me being a math professor. The number system is essentially failing cards graded 1-5 aka 10-50 out of 100.

Somehow Abe's face escapes all the damage, and that helps eye appeal escape the lowest tier.

Even with all the issues, the card still has a good image and presents well.

card has condition issues and it is not the best that could be but the image is still presentable and this card is a prize for many
