My first one.
It has die cracks on the back, running from the edge to to the O in ONE and another one fron N to E in ONE and another from the edge to the bottom of the right wheat stalk I've heard of reprocessed steelies but don't know the difference so your opinions on this are very welcomed. Thanks!

I would say this one looks original and not reprocessed as for grading, I will leave that to someone else

I would go MS-64 with a very good chance at 65. The cheekbone and jaw look nice and no noticeable dings or nicks. Nice looking cent!

Sleaklight original cents were punched from a zinc plated sheet ,,this left the edge of the coin without zinc plating .

re plated cents will be plated on the edge .

Grade opinion on the coin pictured MS-64 .

Mine cost me 50 cents, yours will be less since it isn't in as good condition as mine.
