Jon, welcome aboard! You are in the right place for your questions.
I can't help, because I can't see the image very well, but there are those who can, and will help.

Hi Jon!
The 1960D-1MM-160 I question. It looks like a die scratch.
http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/diestate.php?date=1960&die_id=1960d1mm160&die_state=mds
The line continues on both sides of the mint mark. I've seen this one before while searching and question the listing on this one?
Your coin. We need to see more of the date/mint mark area to see what you have here?

Jon,
It can't be 1MM-160 because 160 is a large date and your coin is a small date.

That's a great observation. Never even thought about the size of the dates comming into play. Very good!

I just went through and eliminated all other possibles but one because of the small date. How about the 1MM-106 ?

COOP, I looked at your link but didn't ever know you could do that. Just went back and figured it out. I'm a big fan of AZ. I would love to retire there.

Your mintmark (MIGHT?) be slightly higher than 106.
Still I'd look for the markers.
http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/diestate.php?date=1960&die_id=1960d1mm106&die_state=mds
A few things to note:
Markers can change as the die was used.
Yours has a little bump marker at the base of the 6 and maybe a little line at the east center of the D.
You can probably see more markers in hand.
LOL... 1960 is a tough year because there are so many RPMs.
At least you can eliminate all large dates.
