I want to say its an RB and just has some surface chatter but its still a full strike with no wear so I guess MS61 but would love the cent experts to chime in. Any Snowden attribution?

Thanks for looking

No cent expert here, but am going a bit low with AU58, looks like some very slight wear on both sides.

I agree with DavidZerbato at MS63 assuming it is MS. It is a liner for RB/BN designation and could go either way.

Like edweather noted, if it is circulated then AU58 but I think it would grade MS.

What do you see that would take it down to 61?

I don't believe there is any wear on this coin. sharp & nice strike , MS-63; On the fence with RB / BN .
Obverse chatter keeping it from 64.

@BH - The chatter on the obverse mirrors made me think MS61 but a part of me figures I am off by a point or two and MS62/63 is a real possibility. I don't know where on this coin anyone would see a lick of wear. Its not an AU cent and is MS all day. The question is where on the MS scale. Either way, $28 was the price tag so I think I did pretty good.

thanks for all the input!

Where is the wear on the coin? I read two AU58 guesses but no substantiation of the claims. Don't get me wrong, I love the fact that what I see and what others see is being challenged with regards to the MS or not but I need more explanation to understand why there are guesses that bring the coin from a majority mint state to a coin that has been circulated to some degree.

May well have the surfaces and luster of a 63 or higher, but the uneven, spotty toning will hold it back. MS-62RB.

MS62BN may squeek RB but looks closer to BN.
