Lincoln guys, did I screw the pooch? What would this one grade?

Hang on to it raw or slab?

  • The sharpness of the inner rim on the lower obverse almost makes it look like a proof.

    The lack of, or worn down, rim on the obverse top and reverse is a little puzzeling ?

    Definitely doesn't look UNC from your pics, I'd go a bit higher and say AU55. Not even worth the fees to certify.

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

    Looks like rub on the cheekbone and jawbone -- not mint state, IMO, and therefore definitely better kept in the raw.

    Thanks everybody, that was kinda my thinking but I am not much of a grader on copper. This is the best way I know to learn, throw up a pic and see what the concensus is. Not going to waste my money on this one.
