This coin appeared on this forum a couple years ago. I bought it from the poster, but haven't sent it in for grading. Who wants to take a guess what PCGS would grade it at.

Appears to had a touch of circulation. That's a pretty deep BN patina for an MS coin. Lots of little hits on the devices, especially on ONE CENT and USA. Maybe a little less light would change my mind, the pictures are good but likely exposing too much.

I like it as an AU58-63

Nice looking example. I'd have to say AU58 or low MS (maybe 62).
