A solid, lightly circulated Memorial cent with legit toning. XF45+ for me.
Rest in Peace

You like the toning? I think it's pretty nice. It's hard to get a good picture of the almost iridescent purple color that it is beginning to turn.

I'm seeing minimal wear, not enough to justify XF territory. Still has a halo of original luster around the devices and low points of the devices. AU53 for me.

I'll say AU-58. No real wear to my eyes, just strike issues.

AU-53. Nice toning, but some wear in places. Steps are pretty worn - don't think it's light strike given other details. That's above my pay grade.

Stay well,
