I originally actually purchased this in June... it arrived today. 10/10 work USPS. Anyhow, what do you think PCGS called it?   |

Nice strike, ideal color. I'll take a shot at MS65.
This just got me to realize how few high grade large cents I've studied! We need more oldies on the grading forum to mix things up:)

Hmmm, this is a juicy one  . Id estimate MS-65 at least. Haha, we were both typing at the same time again! Edited by mrwhatisit

Looks MS-65 to me. It may be the lighting, but possibly a repunched date?

I'll stick with my standard grade of YOWZA! What a spectacular obverse. There are some high grade large cents from this era, but not many have eye appeal like yours. Congrats!
EDIT: Everyone seems to have settled in at MS-65. At least that. Surely even PCGS would call this 65.

I agree this coin has spectacular eye appeal. The good strike, few distracting marks, and the vibrance of colors all come together. Even though it isn't RD or RB (in my opinion), the copper has splashes of purple, green, blue, and yellow toning. This would be nice to see in-hand.  Suffering from bust half fever.

I can't see any fine scratch hairlines on Lib's cheek, so I will assume there isn't any under the toning in the fields.
Exceptional coin, with subtle cameo effect of lighter toning on Liberty.
MS-65, more brown than red.

I'll agree at 65. It is a stunner.

Details look 65. Color to me looks really off and not seeing hints of luster.
Ill guess 64bn
