Sorry about the pics. I was happy to get this coin. Looks genuine and uncleaned. Nice original coin. Hoping its close to XF. I paid $57 for it. What do you guys think?

I'd say around F12 - What happened to all the denticles? Worn die? $57 may have been about too much as this is a more common large cent with mintage of almost 3 million.

Vf20. Very little hair definition and some of the leaves on wreath look flat.

A very attractive first year type.

VF-25

Edit: Probably cleaned. Not worth $57, I'm afraid.

might make VF20 details. coin appears to have been cleaned, the surface color of the reverse is not right. the round circle below the date could have been from an attempt to put a hold in it for a chain or something
Rest in Peace

VF, details, cleaned. This would have been an okay purchase if it had not been cleaned.

As is its closer to a $30 coin.

Ask us BEFORE you buy.

The coloration on the reverse is the easiest way to tell.
