I'm thinking about buying this on ebay for less than $7 USD. Grade? Legit?

Certainly looks real. If the depressions in the Obverse field are worrying , these are often found on the 1944 and 1945 Steel five cents. You can easily acquire a MS 64 for around the 15 to 20 dollar mark. Happy hunting.

Thanks! I thought the surface looked very proof-like and I was wondering if these were replated. As compared to this other listing I was looking at...

If you can pick this up for less than $7 US, go for it, nice one.

The force, did you end up purchasing this coin, would love to see some better photos to warrant a better grade on this coin. Looking closer it looks as though the over exposure covers up the wear on the cheek and the neck. I'm always interested in seeing other people's cherry picks / ebay picks

Looks nice and I don't think it's been polished but I have a sneaky suspicion the picture has been enhanced by photoshop to bring out the sharpness, contrast and lustre.
