This had been the most valuable coin in my collection for many years. My dad purchased it for me as a christmas gift 16 or 17 years ago when I was a pre-teen. I still have it today, and even though it doesn't quite make the grade cut for my current Lincoln collection(I am going for VF-20 or better); it still is one of my favorites. It has a lot of sentimental value, and has appreciated quite nicely over the last decade. My dad was shocked when I told him the approximate value. I think he paid $50 or so for it at the time. Anyways, what would you grade?

Yeah, I agree more with an F-12 based on the obverse. Graders may bump it up though as is common on 14-ds.

I would agree with F-12 on this one.
