It's got a few dings but nothing overly serious, I'd say AU55.

The obverse is gorgeous and looks MS to me. You did an excellent job with the images too.
The reverse has some recent dings and the wheat lines show rubbing so I'll guess AU58 also

Thanks for the feedback everyone! My guess is low AU. I am often overly conservative with grading though. I see rub on Lincoln's cheek, beard, and lapel, and the random dings bring it down as well.

Not seeing any wear on the obverse. Really nice bow tie.
Maybe some wear on the left wheat ear, not sure, certianly a few hits.
MS 61

AU50 - and it has some recent damage which will hurt it in the marketplace. If there were such a thing as a scrutinizing auction for this level of coin, it would sell at EF money plus a little.

I swear the OP's coin is another of those very thick rimmed early lincolns. with the contrast in his photo the details are very pronounced like proof coin might be?
