This was gifted to me a while ago. Looks like an earlier die state since you can see the bottom tip of the 3 still (Though it may not be stage A). With the ding on the cheek, how far will this one go? It's a tough coin in MS-65, so what would ANACS give this one do you think? Thanks in advance!

Thanks to you both! I do not disagree with you, but what makes this AU? The fields look fairly clean and I don't see too much major wear anywhere.

Sweet DDO!
Greasy strike and scratchy fields, AU55.

On an MS, modern Lincoln the fields will be pretty clean with cartwheel luster. Your coin shows many abrasions across both fields and devices. There is also some wear on the high points.

Here are photos of mine for comparison/reference:
