I think this penny has been in my collection for over 20 years. What do you think it should be graded?

If the color is true, it appears to be cleaned unfortunately.

The colour is fairly accurate and I have not cleaned it since acquiring it in the 80's or early 90's, however it certainly could have been cleaned prior to me owning it. I am still interested to know what it would grade.

Hard to tell if it's cleaned from pictures but it looks good to me. The grade in my opinion would EF, nice problem free coin.

Cheers, Bill

A nice VF30, just a little too much wear for EF IMO
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

I'll say it just hit EF40. It has a bit more detail that a VF30 in my opinion.
