Ok T-Bop, in your infinite wisdom would you mind elaborating? Because I'm pretty sure it is based on everyone I've seen online. They aren't black usually until the grade starts to decline.

Not sure I agree with that.

CoinFrog What about places to sell raw my 1888/7 IHC. Because I've been told I can't sell on here with so few posts. Thanks.

Unsure of the 'black beauty' assessment. Grade appears to be AU55-ish to me. While portions of steps are intact, they are beat up. Partial steps would be accurate.

to me it looks more like environmental toning than an annealing issue, not full steps

Sorry , it just doesn't display the correct gun metal darkish color from the photos you provided . Also all grades of a B/B's have the same color .

T-Bop I've watched two different people's videos that disagree with your assessment that they don't change color with wear. Also, if gunmetal grey is the color I should be looking for then regardless of what came across in the pics that is EXACTLY the color of this coin. I'm starting to think this site is just an empty cart making a whole lotta noise.

Like I said I accessed your coin from your photos . It does not exhibit the color of a BB , IMHO ! Can you take more whole coin pics of obverse and reverse .
