Although not perfect, the website below gives you a rough idea of Lincoln cent grades. Missing is the reverse of these coins because it is important to determine the amount of wear on the wheat.

About Good - Heavy wear; most of rim worn off and top of legends may be missing
Good - Lines in wheat completely worn off; full rims
Very Good - Half of lines visible in upper wheat heads
Fine - Wheat lines worn, but visible
Very Fine - Lincoln's cheekbone and jawbone worn, but separated. No worn spots on wheat heads
Extremely Fine - Slight wear. Wheat bold with little wear.
