Need help grading a 1909-S Lincoln

[coinman66]

What would this 1909-S Lincoln grade? Cheek and beard are seperated. Coat line seperated from neckline. Some wheat lines are blended, but most are still seperate. What do you think?
Thanks Coinman66
PS: And no, its not a VDB.

Without a better pic I would say VF.

It probably got slabbed as a VF, but you mention that some of the wheat lines are blended. Without a better picture I can't really tell what you mean by blended, but for Fine here is what ANA Grading Standards require - Most details are visible in the stalks. Top wheat lines are worn but separated.

For Very Fine20 - Lines in wheat stalks are worn but plain and without weak spots.
