Do you have an ebay link. I need to lear what bad pictures of these look like.

Looks like MS-65 RB at the VERY least. Could easily make MS-66RB. But I am terrible at grading AU and above IHCs from pictures.

TBOP, what are you referring to? I don't see anything at the bottom of AM on the obverse in the pictures or on the coin?

RedRaider , sorry my mistake, I thought there was supposed to be a space at the bottom between those two letters.

Absolutely terrible seller photos for a coin of that quality.
Little doubt that is what caused stronger bidders to stay away.

It was purchased as a Buy it Now a few minutes after it listed. Quick fingers! No bidders.

He had five other IHC's listed, I bought them all. The Half Cent he has listed is far from AU, though, and cleaned.

We'll see if I get lucky on any of these, even though none of these were advertised as MS.

It looks like traces of a die clash event on that '85.

I just cherrypicked a valuable IHC variety on ebay. More to come, but paid less than $50 for what I would guess is more than $500. Won't share the pics until it's in hand, but Rick has a few of them listed right now. I'm on a roll!!
