Good morning coin community. Today I'm posting about this Lincoln Memorial sent I found while going through my change jar before taking it back to the bank. I would like confirmation that I'm viewing this penny correctly. I believe this to be a grease filled, die or a dry or coin. The rim looks in good shape so I would lean more towards grease filled. Any extra knowledge on this topic would be greatly appreciated. Can anybody guess the date? My guess is 1982. Weight is 3.077 g.

Looks like a Grease Filled Die to me too, although there are some remnants of the letters in LIBERTY, for example.

Might be a Greaser, but better pictures would help.
