Big jump in price between 65 and 66 but probably not worth the money to send it in for grading. Maybe if ANACS is running a special then it might be worth it only if you think it can get a 66. Those spots are worrisome.
I have been reading that practically all the shield Lincoln cents have this spotting issue straight from the mint. That is why ms67 or higher is worth so much money, especially in earlier 2010-2013 dates. I just opened an entire mint roll of these and every single one has spotting. The pictures I posted are of one that is the cleanest of the bunch.
