This cent is in the seller's flip. I haven't been able to capture the sickly bright orange color I see in hand. It looks much better in these images. None of the woodie appearance shows in hand. In hand it looks dipped. Subdued luster. None of this shows in the photos. Maybe I should post this in the photograhpy section?   Edited by noD 01/26/2015 6:24 pm

Hard to tell from the photos but I'd say mid range EF.

I don't think the wheat ears are that worn, looks like strike issue. Bow tie and ear seem fairly nice also. Might be a high AU or low MS coin. nlp

Looks like a very nice coin to me. These all have poor, subdued luster and generally look flat. I've held a few MS red in my hand and I didn't like them. One show I went to a dealer had 3 of them, almost identical and they looked like crap. Between the poor stikes and weak luster, it's just how these are.

Looks very similar to the MS-62 in PCGS Photograde.

Lots of beard details. I took it out of the flip for a quick acetone dip, I'll post better pics tonight or tomorrow.
