3 or 4.
Based on the pics and my unprofessional opinion , G06 maybe VG08 if there are no other issues :

It's amazing that a key date was able to circulate for so long before someone plucked it from circulation. Very neat that it's so free of any problems after that much circulation.

6 or 8, but the vertical scratch on Lincoln could be reason for a details grade.

I see VG10. Nice key Lincoln

I'll say VG...…..the lite scratch on obverse shouldn't matter at this grade level. JMHO.
G 6 details due to enviro damage and green on reverse. Nice key though...

G6 here. I think the reverse is a little nicer but the obverse doesn’t quite make VG8 for me.
Assuming it's authentic, I will say 8 to 10. I'd soak it in oil for a while to see if some of that verdigris will come off along with that green spot on the reverse.

I would call it a VG. Looks pretty clean outside of the obverse scratch.
VG08 IMO.
Vg details got some green on there
HAPPY COLLECTING
Perhaps PCGS Conservation would be in order?

vg8
6,,,,, on a good day.
8 if they are concerned about the light verdigris.
Likely they won't be and it will be a 10.
Professional conservation would certainly help.
G-6 any day.
I think it'll go vg8.
