25. Great color. Obverse really clean. Scratch reverse & some minor pitting. Get some Blue Ribbon or Verdi-Care on the reverse. This is a VERY attractive coin.

I would grade this one Fine-15 to VF-20. The lower grade is because of the small amount of verdigris that is in the protected areas of some of the letters and some very minor porosity.
It is a very nice coin, and well above average. Now that I've started to dabble with a date set of the large cents, this piece would probably fit into my plans if I were to run across it at a bourse. So far my expanded large cent collection purchases have been limited to the middle and late dates (1816 - 1839 and 1840 - 1857).

Thanks for your input Bill. Copper is addictive!

For me, gold is more addictive. Having just returned from the Early American Coppers convention, which was held in Charlotte, North Carolina this year, I can tell you that many people share your addiction. They spend more on copper than I spend on gold. Most all of them collect cents and Half Cents by variety and die state.
