kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 02/03/2020 8:51 pm There are a number of what appears to me to be "luster breaks". Plus a couple obvious nicks. IMO it's AU-55. Report this Post to the Staff
coinnewcomer1 Valued Member United States 173 Posts	Posted 02/03/2020 10:53 pm I am still rather new to coin collecting but I would grade this a high XF or Almost Uncirculated about 50. I see the sufficient nicks on the Lincoln side, less so on the One Cent side but overall enough to not make it MS. Although there remains some strong highlights others show very modest wear from circulation. The color is great and some nice details remain. Hard to tell how lustrous it is with the photo but has rich color palette - red-brown and a touch of orange making it quite attractive. I just can't place it as higher end Almost Uncirculated. I would if it had some fewer nics and just a little less wear on the Lincoln side to have it as a high grade Almost Uncirculated. But one proviso, if I saw it live I might catch the luster you speak of better --- the picture is very good and helpful. Edited by coinnewcomer1 02/03/2020 10:54 pm Report this Post to the Staff
