So basically I found this 1983 cent and I have no idea whats up with it. Like, it has this weird shine to it. I have never seen anything like it, not on shield centss, newer cents, or any copper cents. Imagine the shine on a proof coin, now change the black shine to a darkish brown/orange. The videos may not show it completely but its really shiny in some sort of way. I 100% doubt its a proof or anything of the sort I am just slightly confused. Possibly cleaned? Thanks for the help Here are the videos: https://drive.google.com/file/d/11l...?usp=sharinghttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1cp...?usp=sharing |

Oh that's nice to hear...may I ask what the grade is on it? I know it has the smudges and whatnot but I am curious what the grade is with those smudges AND WITHOUT.
Thanks mate

AU-62, leaning toward AU. While the coin is lustrous, I see a lot of field distractions. Yours is pretty nice because I don't see a lot of plating bubbles, which are very common for the issue. Even the highest grades PCGS examples have bubbles. http://www.PCGScoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/3053Here's an example:   Edited by BadThad
