I had originally posted this cent on CCF thinking it was a Proof cent. The community said it wasn't a Proof but a very nice business strike cent. Would appreciate your thoughts as to an approximate grade.

Regarding the last picture, my coin is the one on the left. I had to include it because the first two pics that I cropped didn't show the rim very well.

Thank you.

I'm at UNC details questionable color. the toning does not look natural. this is typical for a heat applied toning. under the toning if it were natural you would see a more lustrous surface. could be lighting but the coin looks dull and lifeless
