The date/mint mark position look valid. The tone/finish on obverse seems uneven, maybe an old cleaning. Interesting line/pattern between right wheat and One Cent.
Rest in Peace

Looks legit to me . Is that a reverse die crack or old scratch ?

Looks o.k. to me too.
Has been lightly cleaned at one time though.

Looks good to me based on what I can see in the pictures. The scratches in the reverse field between 1 and 3 o'clock hurts it.

On the reverse field there it almost looks like a peeled lamination to me. The coin probably has some old cleaning but would be market acceptable to me.

I think it is genuine, but it may have been retoned artificially from an old cleaning. If that mark on the reverse is scratch and not some sort of planchet issue, it won't get a straight grade from a legitimate TPG. It might not get a straignt grade even if the mark is a lamination as suggested. That would be a negative, not a positive for a collector who is looking for a piece to fill the 1914-D hole in his set.

Legit VF-30 or so, unsure about reverse problem. Color looks pretty good to me.

I guess it is just me, but I just don't feel good about
this one. "Liberty" keeps looking at me mostly the "T"



It might be nothing, I would feel better about buying this
coin if part of the deal was being able to send it to ANACS
for authentication.
