Turns out my gut feeling was very accurate for the coins’ wear level. According to PCGS Photograde the wear is between XF45 and AU50. Per...
PF64/65. Needs to be in hand to get definitive…imo…Spark
Looks like a proof…imo…Spark
The face is too worn. AU50 at best, but my gut wants to go with XF45. …imo…Spark
Normal for lots of years for Lincolns…imo…Spark
Go for it. I see 4 coins that would cover $20, I don’t know what that last one is but it would be fun finding out. And that “Honolulu” disk...
Yes. The last 4 years of the Memorial reverse Zincolns ( 2005-08 ) are listing for MS65RED from $9.60-12.80…as of 4 days ago, and this was from...

That looks like an intentional mutilation. Need to see the edge for the small “clip”, but the large, straight cut does not jive with a true edge...
There is corrosion on the obverse: On the shoulder above VDB and next to the last T/TRUST. But the only things I can think of where metal is...
Looks like it has some sort of gunky residue on it or corrosion. Try soaking it in some warm distilled water and see if any of that gunk...
No. That is all circulation wear. And I’m revising my wear grade assessment to XF40. The tricky lips aside, the only (good) reason to keep this...
Saying it in gentlemanly fashion, it’s “minting” not “printing”. Currency is printed with ink. Coins are “struck” at the Mint ( even though the...
Lotta wear…affecting the lips…kinda like a snarl or a sneer. AU50-53, seems the same on both sides. Have you checked it for varieties?…imo…Spark
