I bought this 1867 No Rays Shield nickel in the raw yesterday. It looked good to me and it was priced at $24, so I decided to take a chance. I've been working on grading skills and was hoping to get some better opinions. I can never seem to get the color right with my camera. In hand it does have a more "nickel color" to it.

What say ye?

Thanks everyone. I noticed nobody said anything about a details grade, so I am assuming it hasn't been cleaned.
