Love the Cuds. Color is a giant ? mark. AU55 sharpness.

I'll say AU details (rim bumps).

Looks like a small bump on the reverse at 1, but I think the rest are small rim Cuds. To me, if anything would detail it, it would be the color, as paralyse mentioned. I'm bidding, so I guess we'll see. If it passes my limit, I'm out. If I get it, I'll post pictures. Be interesting to see in hand. I still think the obverse is a solid AU58, it's the reverse that pulls it down a bit.

I agree with Coinfrog. AU details.
Errers and Varietys.

So, Errers, just curious as to why, other than color, you might details this coin. You think those are rim dings on the reverse? I don't see any way that is damage - looks like Cuds around the rim to me - I think they are a good thing, and interesting. If you think I'm off base, tell me why. Just trying to learn something here, and thanks.

I do see the Rim Cuds, but I can also see some rim bumps too. I could be wrong.
Errers and Varietys.

I saw "1858 Fe Cent" and thought it meant it was made of iron. Ah, the foibles of the title capitalization automation.

My first reaction was that it is not authentic. By no means an expert, but the obverse strike is much nicer than average and the reverse much worse. Color, rims, strike = avoid to me.

I see no luster on a strongly struck coin. AU-50/53.

Ended up going to a collector who barely outbid a dealer at $416. Wow!
