this one should test your skills. the classic large cents 1808-1814 are more challenging to grade. this was tough to get a decent pic. use your best judgement

Panzaidi, I noticed you just joined today. Welcome. There are a lot of members willing to help. When reading through your post most are titled "Grade it". Well it will get a grade but could you add "could you grade this please" or "thank you for grading my coin." Please and thank you go a long way in my book.

Hard to grade this one from these photos. Can you remove it from the album and re shoot it?

I see you have one of the old Whitman Bookshelf type set albums, congrats! Wish I still had those as the Dansco 7070 runs far short on the amount of types included in their album.

thanks for the comment IndianGoldEagle. I will be more polite in my future posts. I'll see if I can get some better shots. the coin is dull and does not photograph well.

Even with the coin in the album, I think it's somewhere in the F12 arena.

Panzaldi!

Head's up: the Classic US coins has a separate Grading section where you'll get more exposure to folks willing to offer their opinion of your coin's grade.

Classic US coins Grading Section:

And I agree with the general feeling in the replies so far, this coin is difficult to grade from these pictures. I would offer a VF-20 from what I can discern. If you re-shoot it with more details notable, you may get a different grade...

Like others have mentioned the pictures are not easy to grade from. It looks VF with maybe a little bit of porosity.
