    Here is the placeholder for 1912-s in my Dansco. This coin has some problems in my opinion. Nice details, but certainly cleaned. Color is funny. Also the obverse has a grainy look, more so than a normal lincoln. It almost looks a little bit pitted, though there doesnt seem to be any active corrosion. Maybe it corroded at one point, and then was cleaned? Anyways, nice details but will be up for replacement.

    It was a nice XF, but you would now be lucky to get VF prices for it. Maybe $20 - $30. BTW, I would guess that the pitting is a result of the cleaning.

    do you think it was dipped in acid?

    I have no way to prove it, but that is a logical conclusion.
