    Here is my latest lincoln cent. Any opinions on grade? My guess was VG8- F12 somewhere, but I'm not the greatest at grading. Trying to improve my grading skills (and photo taking skills), so any input is appreciated.
    Thanks!

    I'm gonna agree with you, but it is a nice distinct coin.

    It's probably a solid F12. No problems; No PMD, No cleaning, no surface damage that I can detect. If you are lucky, It may get an F15 on a good day. :)

    I paid $5 for it at auction this past Sunday, so I did OK. Really hoping to trade it for some hole fillers in my Jefferson nickel collection, but will see how that goes.

    VG-10 & the $5 you paid isn't to bad, because this is a very over-hyped coin...

    I give it an F-12. You should have no prob. horse-trading for some nickels.
