1960 was a strange year. There are 1960 Small Dates and 1960 Large Dates. Then to make things even stranger there are small dates over large dates, and large dates over small dates. There are also RD and RB versions. The RD is worth 30%-80% more based on condition. 1960 Lincoln Cent in average circulated condition is probably only worth face value. If certified in top MS it can sell for $10+ to a collector.
