Well, I bought a fake one some time ago, but was able to get my money back. Got this new one, and I love it! Please let me know your opinions on grade and condition, thanks in advance.

1871 is a better date that is about $300 in 62 and $200 all the way down to 55. Yours shouldn't slide that far down. I think yours is also Brown. I think the coin meets most folks value threshold for incurring the slab fee. But I don't think it is necessary unless you want to sell it.

Lightly circulated, old cleaning, would look great in anyone's 7070.

Not totally, it does have luster, hard to make out from these pics.
I got it because I wanted a coin that was already 100 years old when I was born. Funny reasoning, but maybe this will prompt me to start a 7070!

Jstav, not funny reasoning to me. Some of my favorites coins are 1883 which is 100 years from my birthyear. I get the sentiment! Regardless of my opinion on cleaning this is a nice coin with very nice details.
