If I were to guess the grade on this beautiful Large Cent, I would say it should be, MS-64RB, according to these pictures.

Nice coin, not sure if PCGS will call that one 'Red' though, perhaps it looks brighter in hand...

Looks MS64. I think it's a red, even by PCGS standards. I don't see any toning or other spots that might make me think otherwise. Almost looks like it was just minted. great coin!

I'll say 65RB or 64RB at PCGS. Tough to tell for sure from the photos.
The photo looks like the reverse may have hairlines (or die polish lines), but again the photo can deceive.

It is a beauty, but first time I have seen the term cameo used for a large cent. That's great.

Saw the coin in hand today, it is a fantastic obverse for lustre and colour, the cameo effect is awesome, the only better cameos I have seen were on Victorian specimen strikes. The reverse might give the coin a Red-Brown comment. Thanks for showing Dollar! Good to see you again.
