Won this from GC last weekend. I really liked the "Woody" effect on the obverse so I had to have it  . PCGS graded - what grade would you give this cent?

Errers and Varietys.

Higher-end VF? Maybe VF-30?

EF40 is what I would give this Lincoln.. If my opinion is wrong, I'm just like those professional graders...

I'd almost bet on if it was graded by PCGS it would've been a 40......Maybe got extra points for the "Woody" effect?

Kudos to those who guessed XF and a nice pickup, for sure, @Marve! Also, it seems like these key dates sometimes get a little TPG bump.
