EFLargeCents Pillar of the Community United States 1304 Posts	Posted 01/29/2013 3:48 pm Up for your consideration is another large cent with an interesting wear progression. The center of the obverse and reverse retained a lot more details than the edges as you can see in the photos. This makes it a little more challenging to grade, at least to me. The details on the head of the obverse and the wreath on the reverse are much better than the rim would otherwise indicate. Could this have been a weak strike? The head and wreath appear F12 to me, but the rim looks like it would be on a G4 coin. Edited by EFLargeCents 01/29/2013 3:49 pm Report this Post to the Staff

jakeW Pillar of the Community United States 689 Posts	Posted 01/29/2013 7:09 pm First impression was G6 but with the hair detail I think it would go VG8. Very nice large cent with no damage and what appears to be a nice planchet! Report this Post to the Staff
