The Dansco Type set is coming along nice....

Still a little bit of red in the protected areas. Where do you grade this one?

Obverse appears stronger, but overall XF-45. Very nice coin.

XF45. the surface color bothers me as not original. I'm thinking it was polished and has retoned over the years. Lets see what some of old copper master minds say

Lovely "little sister" -- Cohen 1 (small 6, stemless) -- AU53, a later die stage with worn dies; will net grade a bit lower due to all the nicks. Overall a pleasing coin, in my opinion, possibly cleaned at some point, but not unattractive when taken as a whole (half?)

It's touching AU, so 50. The 'sheen' of 'grayish' color on the reverse is almost certainly indicative of an old cleaning with solution. However, as this has retoned nicely, it might very well 'market grade' without details.
