Sharper pics, please. It is hard to make out the surface details here.

Is that the true color, or is your white balance off a bit? John1 |

Is it just me, but is this OBv off center a tiny bit. Look at the edge at about 1 O'clock and how thick it is compared to 8 O'clock where it is much thinner..

Nice coin. Photos exhibit a strong dose of glare. I suspect the white balance is off a tad. But still, a nice coin. Any evidence of die cracks on Abe's head--the cracked skull issue?

Absent better pics, strong abrasions across the shoulder suggest 62/63 at best.

The OBV has a very minor Rim Fin. John1 |

What's it worth? Perhaps 5-15 cents, maybe a quarter at a coin show. Consider that boat loads of mint-fresh/BU rolls of late 50s wheat cents were hoarded by many, many collectors. The numismatic scene is awash with high grate late 50s cents.
Now if there's a die crack in Abe's skull, you might be looking at a dollar or two.
