2nd opinion? Seems like might fetch a decent grade? I like the coin either way. 🤷‍♂️

Not a horrible coin, BUT look at these areas which show marks - 1) Lincoln’s jacket shoulder, 2) the upper cheek bone, 3) the beard jawline, It’s a CBNC coin - “close but no cigar”.

I agree with @VKurtB, but also want to add the additional hits to the lettering on the reverse. While this is a nicer coin than the others you have posted so far, it has a mintage of 172,637,000 and by this point in the Lincoln Wheat series, many collectors were already starting to store full rolls of these uncirculated which is why the values are not what one would think because it is old and in nice shape. One in this shape might get $3-6 in the open market.
