Hi all,
Bought this IHC in a grab bag of other cents... Could you confirm that it is Variety 2? And if so, a lucky find?
Also please grade.. I have my opinion from photograde but would appreciate opinions first.. thanks

Yes, it's a Variety 2 or Type 2 since the last feather points between the C and A.

On Type 1's the last feather points between the I and C.

Looks like G06 to me. You can see some details of the leaves in the wreath and the face and headband have light details. Rim looks is crisp all around on obverse. The ONE CENT on reverse looks scratched up, which takes away a little. Nice find!!

From what I'm seeing, it looks like G Details. The surfaces look porous and scratched all over. Hard to tell with all the glare from the flip.
