1918-S-LWC

I just found this one a couple of minutes ago. I was a very happy man until I noticed the scratch on the reverse.

I'm guessing a very strong EF. This coin is very raw. I just pulled it out of the bag. It hasn't had a proper acetone bath yet.

I would say high au details. I think the bump on the 8 is going to hurt it also

EF details but obvious nicks/dings. The circle image by the lock of hair at Lincoln's forehead, is that surficial or does it go into the metal?

From what I can see, it's just a stain on the coin. I still haven't used any acetone on it yet. The nicks and dings on the rims are from it running through a coin-counter.

I would guess AU-50 details/scratched. Too bad it has a scratch but nevertheless a nice find.
