If that coin hasn't been plated, then it's in amazing condition! MS64 with a shot at 65.

Ok, here's what I see:

Obverse: Mark on field behind Lincoln's head, not sure if it's a ding or a spot. There's also a mark below the 'T' in Trust.
Reverse: Several dings on 'O' and 'N' of 'One,' a couple of crisscrossing scratches between the stalks of wheat ears on bottom.

Overall, beautiful mint luster, very little discernible wear, if any. The highlights obscure the cheek and jaw a bit, but I'm assuming there's no wear there.

Consulting ANA 6th edition, I'm caught between MS63 and MS65. Specifically, MS63 "A mint State coin with attractive mint luster, but noticeable detracting contact marks or minor blemishes." Consulting PSGS Photograde, the coin looks like an MS64. For me, as I don't feel the ANA MS63 is totally appropriate for this coin, my grade would be:

MS64.

Gorgeous coin, by the way. Steel pennies are my favorite in the series, and I would gladly take the one you have.
