This one has seen a bit more abuse than my other purchase today, but I like brown Lincolns, and this has a bit of woodgrain. I first thought it was scratched, but closer exam, and I bought it.

Beautiful, traces of mint luster on this baby too.

AU-58, maybe even UNC.

A lot of small issues driving my opinion down to AU-53 BN
Maybe semi-woodie.

Um, those scratches are not "woodgrain...."

Hopefully the coin is depicted in plastic, because there's no mint process which makes hairlines lap from fields onto devices. Otherwise it's probably a Details piece.

Follow the lines and look at the rim involvement. I'd say PMD from that no?

Sure looks somewhat like wood though

Can you guys take a closer look at Lincolns ear in the enlarged picture. It appeared to me that one of those lines followed into the ear hollow, pretty hard to make a scratch follow the contour? That and the fact that the lines matched so well onto the rim, and there are also matching lines on the reverse. At least that is what made my mind up after viewing the coin with a loupe.
