Hello. Can you tell me something about this LC? I think it was burned, but in my opinion still looks very nice and this dark-copper toning is great. Too bad that face wasn't bulletproof  What do you think about details? AU? I paid for this cent 42$ (28$ + 17$  shipping). Thanks for all opinions.

AU, cleaned, re-toned, eye appeal is not bad considering. Overpaid a little IMHO. $17.00 shipping

Just a question to anyone...does it really cost that much to ship to Poland or did the seller take advantage ?

Usually I paid 6-8$ for shipping to Poland, I don't know why this user wants 17$. I asked him if there is any possibility to lower price, he told that this is minimum.

Too late:) I thought, even with 17$ shipping this was good price for this LC. Numismedia price for AU55 is 150$, but my coin have many issues, so I thought overall 45$ (30%) isn't too bad. I don't know why, but I like this re-toned color:) I think this coin maybe was covered with PVC and somebody burned it out. I did this some time ago with Indian penny (which was almost all green) and effect is the same.

You have right. Without this 17$ it would be an awesome price for me:)

I'm in at AU details too, color is weird, but the detail in the design is still very good. $17.00 shipping seems awfully high, and you might have paid a bit much but still not a bad deal, other than the shipping.

AU details - color is not natural. Regardless, a very nice coin.
Net grade of EF-45 or so

I find that many cleaned coins have eye appeal, and I too really like this coin.

AU50 details, cleaned. I'd easily pay 42$ for it and might go 50-55$.
