Just wondered what others opinions are on this.
I take this to be a woody planchet so I am not sure if this corrosion would be an effect of that or not.
The grade is for sure at least an XF, but I know would get the details, corrosion designation. I bought this for a reasonable price and consider this a serious upgrade to my previous 1869 which is in AG condition.

I very much know how hard it is to get high grade Indian cents of the tough years without spending too much so this is at least a start on the 1869...

I'll say VF details (severe ED). See no evidence of EF sharpness, sorry.

Agree with Frog, VF details-severe corrosion. The headband and Liberty are not sharp enough for XF and the lower hair curl is not separated from the ribbon.
