Good evening everyone,

I got this coin from the same roll with the reprocessed 1943D cent yesterday. I see that there is still mint luster on the coin surface so I think it may be an original one. If it is original, what is the grade you would give this coin?

Thank you!!

Here is a picture of two coins for your reference. The reprocessed one is on the right.

Somewhere between AU-58 and MS-63. One of these things you'll never get clear agreement on without a TPG opinion, which of course is unlikely.

I find steel cents particularly difficult to grade. I agree with you, it doesn't look reprocessed. High AU to low MS looks about right to me.

Oh, and to the forum!

Signs of light circulation, you can see it in the fields...but I also see some cartwheel spokes!

I agree, AU. Not worth sending off in this grade.

AU-58 on the P Mint. The D mint coin has been reprocessed.

I don't see any worn out areas on the coin to think it's below MS60. Can someone explain why AU? Where's the worn out part that I cannot see? I mean based on what I see it's at least MS62

I agree with AU-58. AU= Almost uncirculated.
