I am still bad at assessing the condition of coins, so I ask for the help of forum participants. What do you think is the condition of this coin?   Edited by Slerk 07/21/2022 2:46 pm

We need to see it out of the 2x2 to give a grade.

I'd say F-15, possibly details from light surface corrosion.

Better pictures would help but I love old copper in any condition. In my opinion it's a F15 Details coin. There's damage on the obverse at the rim near star 6 and some hits on the reverse also..

As requested photo without 2x2 I will be very grateful to you if you can also classify this coin.

Good images! I agree on the grade being a F-12 details.

It would help if you used a dark, non-reflective background when you take you images. Black or dark gray. The white background pushes too much light into the camera and washes out the image. The coin approaches to being just a dark disc.

Still too dark to make out surface details.

looks to have F-15 or so sharpness. I think I see the Cud starting in the position on the obverse that would suggest N-3. Surfaces don't look terrible but not ideal either.

I used a scanner for these photos. I don't have a camera, and the photos on the phone will be much worse.

I agree that this may be an N-3 variety Die Marriage 3-C. In addition to the Cud at star 6 the 83 in the date is low.

I suspect the coin is pretty dark in hand, but I adjusted the photos a bit to see the surfaces better.

Well done! F-15 sharpness, unsure about possible ED.
