I originally had this coin graded at EF-40. After reviewing it against my PCGS Photograde app I think I might be a little off. What do you think CCF members?

Unfortunately this coin is corroded on the obverse, That looks likes a good sized pitting on the cheek and I'm fairly confident that once you clean that entire obverse what lies beneath is not going to pretty.

This might only grade genuine at best

Severe ED, a cull with almost no value.

It'll never be worth less than $0.01.

I ever though of the darker areas as being corrosion.
About the value, I don't really care. This was a very low cost coin that happened to catch my eye. My IHC collection is made up of low grade coins and unless someone gives me millions of dollars this is how it will stay. It is almost a sure thing that I will never complete this set either. My big motivation in collecting is finding coins that I like to look at because no one else looks at them. That being said I would like to thank everyone that took the time to help me grade this coin. It seems I was not far off on my estimate of the grade and I learned something new.
