It's an AU-58 which can slide into MS (which Bad Thad means)
The fingerprints always drive me crazy, I hate the looks, if I have one in my collection, I try to get rid of it even if it is mint state.

And, BTW.. the fingerprint is on BOTH sides of the coin.

A little too blotchy for me . Something dripping out of Lincolns mouth , obverse rim nick at 11:00 , hit and scratch on right wheat stalk , the O in ONE slightly beat up on reverse . AU-55 .
