I am seeing next to no wear on that coin. Usual high points for wear are hair above the ear and the bonnet. These look almost unblemished/unworn so MS60 for me.
PS- I wish our friend celticsoul would return. He would set us straight.
i wish celticsoul were here too. I'd really like to hear from him on this one especially his thoughts on the color. maybe when I see him return i'll repost
I might go so far as UNC details on this one. GERMANICVS is correct, the usual wear on the high points isn't showing. I can not get around the color though. Yellowish greens and what appears to be orange brown are not natural toning. For example:
after the bath the coin looks better but as far as the color goes I am not sure Celtic would be in love with it. I think EF large cents might be right about the color.
