Some of the early Lincoln mem. cents tend to be quite sharp I've noticed (I swear that 1959 to about the mid 60's have a sharper design than later ones, especially noticeable on the date. A 1960 cent is what I use in my type set for Lincoln Memorial cents). Interesting toning on the obverse. Normally I'm not a huge fan of toning, but it does look interesting.
You need to practice your photography skills. Even with a phone you can do better than that. Look above the date, the surface seems all wavy, wonder why is that.
Oh foolish me; I thought that you were showing off a 90 degree rotated die. It is a nice 61 penny though.
A group of jolly cowboys, discussin' plans at ease, says one, "I'll tell you somethin', boys, if you'll listen, please." That is to say, I don't know if it will grade, but I like your avatar.
Don't listen to that hombre 'Eddiespin'. He's a deperado and wanted for impersonating a collector.......
"He'll never win, he'll never win, the other nags are closing in. He's gone from first to second place. It looks as though he's thrown the race!" Story of my life. BTW, that's a famous stretch call. What horse?
