Newherehavingfun Valued Member United States 190 Posts	Posted 03/26/2022 3:52 pm Hi and thanks for looking. I am very new to this and am finding coins that I find stunning starting with this 1974 S penny. Hard to capture with iphone but it is not dark brown to the eye, it has a beautiful lustrous quality. Thanks for your input in helping me learn. It is clearly worn. Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19210 Posts	Posted 03/26/2022 6:13 pm AU50+ rings my bell. Lots of light chatter/dings on the obverse--high point wear. Another good hole filler. Report this Post to the Staff

T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 03/26/2022 8:08 pm You managed to confuse me with 3 entirely different colors of that coin . 1st photo AU-58RD with a touch of wear. 2nd photo EF-40BN and full of hits and dings .The reverse is in between the both of them .

Newherehavingfun Valued Member United States 190 Posts	Posted 03/27/2022 01:11 am Sorry.. yes I tried different ways this time with only my iphone. The darker ones were near the window but still too dark. The real color does show a bit more red, not dark brown. But under incandescent light you could see the richness that I can see with my eyes. This is very tricky. I didn't want to use the microscope app, but today was a cloud day as well. I'm sorry! Report this Post to the Staff
