Sweet pickup! I'd crack it out of that slab in a heartbeat. Great coin, great price. Win/win! (I think it could have easily fetched $35+). I agree, XF+. If not for the banged up "O" in "One Cent" it may have netted a low AU.

Well, for the price if you like it, then it's only a few bucks. But looks like some major reverse damage on the "O" in "one". Basement slab. I would not waste money on cracking it out for a real TPG (I doubt they will grade it), but enjoy it for what it is.

I would not try to get it slabbed by a more reputable TPG. I did notice the damage to the O in one also. Still think I can flip the coin for a few bucks more.

It looks like it could be an AU-50.

I agree with the EF-40 basement slab grade. The reverse damage would net it down to 20 though.
