1987 D Lincoln. Found this today in a roll and noticed it was really good condition. I think this could be MS67 or higher. I would like a frofessional opinion on is it worth grading and any further action on it.

I'm not a professional but I'd say no, it's not worth grading. They minted almost 5 Billion with a B! If the coin is a 67 it might be worth 20 bucks. How much a grading fees?

Your best bet would be to put it on Ebay and list it as a raw, high grade cent. I bet you yield less than a grading fee and shipping. But you may find someone that needs it for a collection or album. Dont grade it, if you want to turn it into cash, Ebay is your answer!
Nice looking coin though!
If it grades ms67, price guide is $28, so you’ll lose money grading it.
It would have to ms68 or better to make it worth while, and there’s a substantial hit in front of Lincoln’s hair.
Nice cent... but not worth grading....As mentioned above, even at 67, not worth it. Cheers, RickO
Nice one ... I personally would not have it graded.
Don't waste your money trying to get "67" grades on moderns. In the end they are just common coins and you are making yourself a slave to the paid opinions of others. Always calculate just how much it is going to cost you to have a coin slabbed ... fees plus any shipping charges.
No - But would price right (at grade I assign) in 2x2. This kind of material just price accordingly based on how I grade it.
No
Nice high grade Lincoln not worth getting graded.
No, coin folder yes
Short answer: NO.
@Gurney266 are you surprised by the comments here? In YOUR opinion, is this coin worth grading? What does "worth grading" mean to you?
A keeper I would say yes, send for grading, not so much.

Never a slave to one plastic brand will I ever be.
I only grade Memorial cents if they have crazy toning. There are naysayers about this but the color craze has people paying moon money (for large Mintage coins) even on low grade and QC coins.
I'd save it to see if any of it's friends show up.
If and when one does presents it's self, you will know more of where yours stands.
That's just my thoughts on one way to research.
