I saw this coin on ebay it has a 0.99 cent starting bid and the title never mentions what kind of coin it is.
I need it for my album so I'm looking for opinions on the grade and value.

Looks AU but the color is off. Believe it or not, the Chinese are faking these too....it could be one.

Took about a 1/2 minute to find an SVDB for $5.71.
Described as 'antiqe imitation'.

If I was going to fake a coin I would choose a year that was rare.
In my opinion the coin looks authentic with some sort of old cleaning.
I bid 1 dollar with free shipping
Rest in Peace

The coin does look au with a cleaning and a resulting odd color.

When looking at a lot of Lincoln pennies for a certain year/mintmark, some just stand out as odd looking. While it could just be the lighting, I usually pick a coin that looks more natural. If the seller seems reputable, you could put in a low bid to see if the coin looks better in hand than in the auction photo. Some sellers just can't take a good natural photo.

AU-58 details, cleaned. Still worth buying for the right price.

Agree 58 details (cleaned), but wouldn't want to own it.
