twodsonegf Rest in Peace United States 637 Posts	Posted 01/14/2016 3:03 pm Another one up for opinions is this 1883 5c NO CENTS coin. I was guessing low UNC, say MS 61/62? I am not always the best... better at Dollars than other denominations. Report this Post to the Staff

Collects82 Pillar of the Community United States 1316 Posts	Posted 01/14/2016 3:14 pm I'll say AU-55. Seems to be a touch of wear in the hair under the crown. And maybe its the camera, but the luster seems dull IMO. However, some cool die cracks on both sides make this a great coin :) Report this Post to the Staff
twodsonegf Rest in Peace United States 637 Posts	Posted 01/14/2016 3:22 pm Thank you. Initially I thought AU, but then decided it must be at least MS 60, but I trust your judgment over mine! The luster is definitely there, though not super flashy. Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36903 Posts	Posted 01/14/2016 3:24 pm Strike weakness on these can often look like wear. Hard to tell for sure from these photos if there is a break in the luster, which would make it AU. My guess is this one would make MS-62. Report this Post to the Staff
