Here is an 1849 large cent I bought around 14 years ago that I lost until recently. I have no clue if there is any special attribution for this one as my large cent knowledge is non-existent.

I think it is a solid F12 edging into f15 territory. But there is an area of concern on the reverse about 10 o'clock just over the O in "one".

Enough rambling, here are the pics.

P.S. I am still reading up on photography on this forum. lol

I think it may be able to make F-15.

I'm pretty sure that this is the N-4 die marriage which is a very common variety. It's hard to tell when coins are well circulated.
As far as grade I will give this coin an F-12 market grade and net grade it down to EAC 8 because of the rough surface. By net grading the coin I'm basically saying that while the coin has F-12 sharpness I'm only willing to pay VG-8 money for it.
1849 N-4 R.1 12/8

i think a f12 is the best for this one, but the surfaces and the rim hit will hurt. Ouch

Yeah, I'm at F12, and there are a couple of issues like you say.
