I removed it from the holder today to put in my Dansco album.

That's when you should have taken the photos. It is a nice 14-D.

I don't see the woody, and your original photo lighting showed the reverse to be cleaned.

Good for you that PCGS gave it a straight grade.

I did and the first images are after the removal - For some reason, I have been having issues with either my phone or the lighting - I didn't change anything, but something is going on that I have to figure out..

as for the woody comment - didn't say it was one just had the appearance of one to me with the brassy stripe going through the obverse.

you're original photos do appear to show a cleaned coin so I can see the comments to that affect. looks like a lamination issue not a woody.

to me the coin looks closer to VG8 rather than G6

Agree it might be a lamination or planchet impurities causing that streak, not much different than what causes a woody. The color looks nice in the slab photos, perhaps your lighting angle was too high in your recent photos. I would try experimenting with that first.

Because it's a '14-D Lincoln it's going to get some leeway in the grading room. With this level of wear, it is more than acceptable for a straight grade.

i agree w/Maine Member comment regarding the LWC keys being harder to find. a high percentage of collectors started with this series and look to complete the album. I applaud you in your breakout. I don't slab coins, I like to see them side by side in an album and have a sense of completion after years of searching.

I need to confess, In my Lincoln pursuit the 14D was one of three that I could not find in circulation, and had to purchase for the set completion. The other 2 were the 09SVDB and the 22 no mint mark Strong reverse.

Maine Member, I always wondered whether anyone ever found an 09Svdb, 14d or 22 in circulation.
