Preheat oven to 325°F. Remove skin from ham; score fat on ham in a diamond design, and stud with whole cloves. Combine preserves, lemon juice, cinnamon and cloves in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Set aside. Place ham, fat side up, on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Insert meat thermometer, making sure it does not touch fat or bone. Bake, uncovered, for 1-1/2 to 2 hours or until thermometer reads 140°F (18 to 24 minutes per pound); baste every 15 to 20 minutes with the sauce.
