Well I think it's pretty stinking awesome considering I paid $78 for my 09s in fine condition! I'll ask what you all think it would grade through a TPG? I'm trying to figure out what 'details' means... would this get that with the grade since it looks corroded or whatever is going on there? |

I think the ding on the 8 o'clock position is what's making the coin look off-round. Very nice find and it's in surprisingly good condition. Sacramento is not exactly free from humidity.

Dude, punctuation is your friend.
Great find. Yes, it would garner a details for corrosion and damage. Looks to be in the high VF neighborhood.

Great detector find!  It's around an EF-AU coin but corroded and cleaned. Nonetheless, these are in fairly high demand regardless of condition and it will easily sell should you choose to. On the right day with the right bidders, you might get $100 out it. Lincoln Cent Lover!VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/

drillman,
That you are in California and not on the east coast is a good sign.
It may be in a damaged state, but nevertheless a thrill to find!
No doubt genuine. Nicely done!
