Your photos are indeed very nice. It is difficult to get the color and contrast just right on a circulated Lincoln Cent, and you have done it well...take it from someone who does this professionally.
Your coin is EF45, and pretty solid for the grade. There's no way this is an AU coin, the wear is too flattened. The reason it gets 45 and not 40 is because the coin is problem free, very nice, and looks "shiny" and well kept.
