As I've said before, I'm a sports card guy, not a coin guy. I am trying to sell off on eBay my small childhood collection from the early 1960s. How should I grade this one to list on eBay? I know nothing about grading coins.

1) was this done on a scanner ?
2) is that lint on lincoln's beard?
3) that green speck on the left wheat needs to be professionally conserved.
Looks like a victim of brasso or an eraser.
It also has some wear, the wheat lines, ear, cheek.
Since it's already cleaned and polished even if you conserved the spot away it's still a problem coin and very reduced in value.
Really hard to say a value, problem coins are like that.
I would describe it as "cleaned" and let the bidders set the value.

When you post scans of coins, the scans will often look terrible, the coin will look like it has issues, and these responses are typical.
Post pictures from a camera.
Is that really a green spot on the reverse? What's that on Lincoln's beard?

<< <i>Thanks for your suggestions. I put it on eBay with scans and pictures. The pictures did not depict details very well. It brought $86.00. don't know if that was good or bad. >>
I think you did well. Raw coins are a crap shoot and prices can be all over the place.
