RK55 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 05/15/2015 12:38 pm Recent pick up but not in hand yet. Is it possible for grading opinions and a Newcomb variety based on the seller photos? Any help is appreciated, Thanks! RK Report this Post to the Staff

T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 05/15/2015 4:26 pm don't know about the variety but I would grade it VF-35 from what I see in the photos , could even be 25 or 30 Report this Post to the Staff
edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 05/15/2015 6:27 pm I agree with VF35. Nice coin. At first glance it looks like an N-2, but don't hold me to it. Will try and confirm it later. Report this Post to the Staff

Joseph7420 Bedrock of the Community Canada 11922 Posts	Posted 05/15/2015 9:20 pm It looks better than VF to me. AU-50 or 53. Report this Post to the Staff

edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 05/15/2015 9:49 pm I might be willing to bump up a little to XF40, and will stay with N-2 until I can see the date area better. Edited by edweather 05/15/2015 10:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff
RK55 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 05/15/2015 11:28 pm My initial thought was XF-40, with a chance at low AU. The reverse photo is a little fuzzy but I should have the coin in hand tomorrow (Sat 5-16). I will post new photo's when I get the coin. I won the coin at $32.24 with (free ship) The coin just caught my eye, I hope it looks nice in hand. Report this Post to the Staff

Celticsoul Pillar of the Community United States 1566 Posts	Posted 05/16/2015 06:34 am EF-40 cleaned and retoned IMO. Report this Post to the Staff
RK55 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 05/16/2015 3:35 pm I received the coin and shot a few pics. Celticsoul may be correct, xf40, cleaned and re-toned? I still like the coin in hand and for $32 I am keeping it. Edited by RK55 05/16/2015 3:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff

edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 05/16/2015 6:06 pm I like the, what appears to be a lamination issue on the obverse. A little Verdicare might help the look. Report this Post to the Staff

Wizzy1 Valued Member United States 430 Posts	Posted 05/18/2015 9:47 pm Is there a bulge at the southwest of the O in One on the reverse? Report this Post to the Staff
razorblaydejr Valued Member United States 278 Posts	Posted 05/18/2015 10:34 pm I think you're right RK55, it's such a low investment and it's a neat coin for the mint error on the obverse alone. I always feel okay with details on these large cents, especially when they have good eye appeal like this one. Nice pickup! Report this Post to the Staff
