I would like opinion on grade and authenticity. Seller has antiques but few coins. While date/mint mark position look ok, the coin has a Chinese cast appearance (in my opinion). Thanks

Can't figure out what the spots are but it doesn't look MS. I agree with AU. I can't find the post but just the other day someone posted the pics of the six dies for the 14d. If memory serves, it looks pretty close to die 1? Let me find it...

My 2 cent is that it is an authentic 1914d, die pair 2, middle vertical mint mark. It has environment damage. I wish those green goo can be removed.

For grade, it may be MS60 details.

AU details, corroded....questionable authenticity. I don't like the look of the right wheat and I can't see the MM from an angle.
Lincoln Cent Lover!

Yeah, would like to have a closer look at the mint mark, if real, looks AU-58
Rest in Peace

It appears that many of those tiny pits are above the field, rather than corroded into the field. If that were so, and those are not pits but tiny hills, that is evidence of casting.

Might be one of those you have to see to know. As for me, I'd never buy that coin raw. Although he does say he accepts returns.

If it's real it will probably sell comparatively cheaply as I think there are a lot of folks who simply won't buy that value of coin unless it is certified.

I'm worried about the authenticity as well.

I feel this one may have come from China. Too many red flags.
