This is my first BIE.

Looking at cuds-on-coins.com I think this example comes under Lincoln Die Break II-F-4 and matches up with LDB4-1955S-003B 4FH+

There are several on ebay and there's quite a range of prices. In addition to confirming my assessment I'd appreciate thoughts on the grade of this coin.

Thanks

Any thoughts on grade?

Nice BIE! I'm thinking MS-63 for the grade.

Not struck through, just a weak strike, which is very common for 55-S. The BIE chip is also not fully struck up. I agree on MS63RD.
