Hey guys, good morning, I was wondering, do people pay premium for coins that have that good ol' wood effect?

Depends on the eye appeal.

But even then, very little above the standard price. I've gotten a couple of Lincoln cents just because they had an interesting grain.

To a woody enthusiast, a coin showing an attractive, dramatic woody condition would be worth some $$ to acquire. In terms of--say--a 'regular' 1936 Lincoln Wheat cent in VF condition (with no issues), a stunning woody might be worth 5-15 dollars, depending on the collector. Always depends on the collector....the demand for the item.

depends entirely on eye appeal - and mostly only in higher grades. think of it like toning on morgans - no one really cares if a morgan in VF has toning. It's got to be attractive toning and at a high grade, which makes the whole coin more appealing (and thus driving up demand for it).
