Awful, just kidding. This is by far the most undergraded coin I've seen. Ever. Just. Wow

Wow.

Well I just found the listing, and looks like the seller agrees with the undergrade, unfortunately. I'd be a buyer all day at F15 money, but sadly that's not the case.

I'd have no problem with a VF25 grade but 15 does sound low. I wonder if it's been net graded for something we can't see (like a rim issue).

Here's an identical variety that PCGS graded VF20. The subject coin here does look better. https://coins.ha.com/itm/large-cent...ot=1&x=0&y=0

Not entirely surprised. I think the purity of this specimen may produce an upward grade bias.

I am not surprised. Although most probably a weak strike on the obverse, it is the obverse that would have made me grade lower than I actually reported.

Sometimes I will openly disagree with the slab grading, but not in this case.

glad to see it graded straight but no way this coin is F15.
