my guess is VF20. The amount of variations in the 1859 large cents makes me scared to start collecting them. Good luck!

Thanks, so far I just buy them when I see them and then search for the die pair in spare time. Its not so much searching for certain ones as it is them coming to you cause I haven't found 2 from the same die yet.

I know there's a rim ding but hopefully it is not as bad in person, for that price I'll take it all day and night.

The vine break is not there at Leaf #2... can you post better photos?

die crack at leaf 12 and just a little bit of the underlying 6 is visible if you look closely.

There are 2 known "9 over 6" or more correctly "9 over inverted 9", dies varieties. This one does not show any of the markers for either of the known "9 over inverted 9" dies, that I can see.
