This is a grading skill challenge because of 50 percent red to me. I look forward to all your opinions.Not the best pictures but not the best camera either. Thanks.

Hi, cownick, I see you have a couple real nice Large Canada Cents, but if you want a grade your pictures are going to have to be bigger than that, just can't tell from those.

The geology nerd in me is coming out, the bottom photo looks like the coin was photographed on a piece of polished jade...

Sorry, this is as good as the camera gets. The 1918 dark areas are brown, it has deep red- blue- purple tonning with minor marks like a MS 63.
The 1920's dark areas are brown, with orange background and 3 minut marks (10) power after several minites of study. Looks like a lite strike.
I asked 40 or so dealers for grades. The result ranges very different from AU to MS 63.
I bought a bulk lot for very little so I could not go wrong.
