I normally don't upgrade, but couldn't let this pass for $15 shipped. Any help on grade and/or attribution is much appreciated.   |

Fantastic price. I'll have to look up the attribution at home but as far as grade I'll say VF-35.

I love the look. Old lacquer, maybe, or Dell's?

Could be Dell's could be Tanfastic but probably recolored somehow.

Congrats ED on the great price of a VF-30, IMO. sorry not enough experience on large cents to give attribution.

Nice pickup for that price. VF35+ grade. The color does seem off. Value wise I would say $25-30

Thanks everybody. I'm going to have to lighten my photos 3 shades, or get a better light on it. There is no way this recolored. Not sure what happens between my camera and the forum  In-hand it's a nice brown and I'm looking at bare metal on the whole coin. I took the pics quickly before I went to work, and I'll take some better ones later. Anyway, I digress  just spent 2 hours going over every one of the 33 die pairs on Heritage, and the best I can come up with is N-11. Edited by edweather

OK, so I got the big gun Jansjo light out. Hopefully these are better. Moderator could you please adjust the title. The date position shows up really well now. Not bad for camera with no image stabilizer. Jerry, N-16 is a good choice, although imo my point of bust sticks out too far, and the left foot of the 1 on mine is over the center of a denticle, and my 5 is closer to the curl.

Nice coin, Ed, specially at the price.
These late date cents seem to be really hard to attribute.

I agree that it's probably N-16 like Jerry suggested. The closeness of the 1 to the nearest denticle is diagnostic.

I think I see some lines just past Y in Liberty on obverse that are there for N-16 and absent on N-11. Take a look at that area on the Heritage coins and than on yours.
