Without reverse pics, it's a bit of a gamble. That may have scared off a lot of potential pictures, along with the slightly "off" color in the pictures. Of course, it could end up being a great MS63 coin and you'll have gotten a steal.

I'm with fengk. if it is a good reverse you will have done very well for your money.I think if the seller had added the pic of the rev you would have had to give up a few more dollars lol but you did good by what I can see.
good buy

It looks like a super buy. Even if it turned to be a MS60 you are looking at $200 but I think it will grade much higher.

I can tell the color isn't shown right in the picture; the actual color is tough, though, because I don't know what the background is supposed to look like. It grades high AU at the very worst.

I researched past sales; he's selling a *lot* of Large Cents, to people who have large amounts of feedback for buying coins, including Large Cent specialists, and they all seem to be pretty satisfied with them. It's very encouraging, regardless of the lack of reverse photo. The seller seems willing to disclose problems with his coins in the auctions.

My guess? You're gonna be a happy camper. I'll look forward to seeing pics.

Lets hope the reverse is as good as the face, and you will have made a very good buy. Personally, I think you did alright even if the other side is not quite as good.
