From what your images show it looks like a sirculation hits on the edge, your coin seems like an ordinary strike, value around 05-07 cents

The 'L' on the rim is normal for this year coin.

Just a normal Wheat cent. I'd suggest not holding it like that with your bear fingers. It'll leave fingerprints on it, which you don't want. Never handle uncirculated coins like that. Either hold it by the edge or wear gloves. Just a suggestion.

Fingerprint oils will leech into the coins surface and become permanent.
