I understand that ICG grading is questionable at best, but still. I am eyeing this coin as it is very affordable for the grade. It is not a perfect coin by any means (couple of carbon spots at the back), but then again I will crack it out anyway and stick it in my album.   |

I'd put this at AU58/MS62. I'm sure ICG called it something ridiculous like MS64/65, no offense  |

The slab looks pretty scuffed up. Some of the reverse discoloration and apparent scratches could be slab scuffs.
I could see ICG in at MS-63RB. If the raw coin doesn't wear most of the milky reverse scuffs, that would be a fair grade. The carbon spots near "IC" of AMERICA and "EN" of CENT are more of an ongoing concern.
Nice coin.

Certainly not a coin I'd pay MS money for.

 An acetone bath could remove the white crud if it is on the coin. I could see a price haggle about halfway between an AU-58 and MS-63 price, somewhere in the $30s. |

Sounds about right. I say AU-58 because I'll bet there is broken luster across the high points, especially the cheek. The three carbon spots also detract. |

Where are you guys getting an MS coin out of this IHC ? There is light minute wear on both obverse and reverse and other indications of it being lightly circulated . Fine , I'll raise my call to AU-55 .  |
