Hi y'all

I have a 1973 no mint mark, 3.1 grams, Red, but Lincoln has a very large nostril! I'm new to this so I believe it also has a BIE error? I may not have that right... But just curious if there's a market out there for this coin and if it's worth getting it graded? Thanks!

BIE die chips are associated with LIBERTY. Can't quite tell from the pixelated screen shot image if that's a nostril die chip or not. Without seeing full, large and sharp images of the obverse and reverse, it's difficult to determine a grade--likely in the high XF range, just guessing. Overall, not worth submitting for grading.

Without seeing the word Liberty, how can we tell if it is a BIE.
Also a BIE is not an error, it is caused by a Die Chip.
