All 1843 Petite Head Large Letters are N-4, so you are right about that. All things considered, including, your 0 feedback, two other bidders were close to your bid, sellers decent feedback......I'd say you did ok for approx 18 USD. That being said the photos are horrible, so hope for the best on that end. I'd look for better pics if possible next time. Probably not that easy buying US coins living in Belgium. |

yeah first time I buy on ebayi only payed 8€ (9$) for the coin itself but I opted for signed delivery to avoid problems with mail delivery so that was kinda the same price. and 2 be honest ....i was't shure of the diffrece between large and small letters so I just went by position as for the pics I took a educated guess that there is a wee bit of verdigris in the right field next to the head its just a pain to find a good old american coins down here I think got lucky with this one that and I was affraid a American would outbid me hehehe and thx for that innformation edweather a other thing I learned |

My guess is the coin has corrosion.
But it has very little wear, is nice, and very inexpensive.
good buy

I would be happy with that I think...
I only recently got a large cent coin and was pleasantly surprised how nice they are in hand. This one is attractive enough, and while not perfect seems an honest coin for a fair price.

Based on the sellers pictures, I would have passed. Based on your pictures, I would have paid what you did, without thinking about. Nice coin with good eye appeal  Many large cents have more problems than this one does. |
