KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 03/06/2008 4:15 pm It's just a nice red-brown cent I picked up the other day. I'll guess this is around MS62 RB. Report this Post to the Staff

canadian_coins Pillar of the Community United States 2408 Posts	Posted 03/09/2008 7:02 pm I don't know Kurt. I am concerned about the relief which appears to have some sign of circulation. The king's face, chin & mouth aren't well defined as I would have expected. Perhaps a weak strike? Here is a certified MS-63 Red. Marc Report this Post to the Staff
KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 03/09/2008 7:18 pm Marc, Well...don't take my guesstimate too seriously! After all, it's not slabbed by ICCS, so I'm not certain at all...it could easily be AU I also wouldn't attribute the face/chin/mouth definition to wear, and under the loupe I see a few marks, but no high-point wear, hence my MS guess! I see normal definition in the face, but perhaps not as bold as my '49 high-relief cents! Edited by KurtS 03/09/2008 7:34 pm Report this Post to the Staff
