AU 58 to MS 60'ish.
Does not look like a proof to me.

Unquestionably a proof, go to the NGC site compare the photos I posted to the 1909 V.D.B Proof posted on the price guide exact match, no question. Any idea on the grade?

I don't need to compare it. That coin is not a proof. So...... If you think it's a proof then you might as well send it in for third party grading. After you get it back please post pics. If it comes back as a proof in an NGC, PCGS, ANACS or SEGS holder I'll be glad to eat my fair share of a well-cooked crow pie. Will be patiently waiting. (I got a feeling it'll be a while!)

I would also be shocked if this came back a proof. I'd say AU-58, although MS something is possible. The photos are tough to grade from.

Much better pics of both sides needed, but doesn't look like a proof to me.

Sam we're trying to save you money . your Lincoln Cent is not a proof . If it is I'll eat the other half of that crow pie with a cup of coffee and 7 week old sour milk .

Also, don't the proofs have the squared rims?
