VF-35. Liberty and back hairlines are a bit weak.

Solid XF40 - better get some Verdi-care on it

This is the Bob Nobody's "Nobody-45" variety, called the "Hockey Player Face" by copper collectors due to the gash on the bridge of the nose...
..in all seriousness, it's a nice coin, at least VF35. It will conserve nicely. I like it.

It's close to EF, but that verdigris has penetrated the surface hand will likely leave porosity.

Does anyone have a Newcomb number for it? These are sellers photos, when it arrives I'll post new photos after an Acetone bath.

I would think XF-40 unless the nose gash brings it down. Don't know how the TPGs treat those.

Coin arrived today and I'm real happy with it. Great chocolate color and the gunk on reverse should come off with Acetone and Verdi-care. No surface damage that I can see.   |
