nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15392 Posts	Posted 12/30/2022 05:35 am Nice looking coin. I have very little knowledge of these large cents, unlike you as an expert, so a general educated guess is AG03 but with clean, non corroded surfaces that gives a very nice eye appeal.

kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 12/30/2022 10:13 am IMO AG-03 at best. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18640 Posts	Posted 12/30/2022 10:57 am look at that reverse. thats not AG. I dont think a coin handled for this many decades would be that different in wear on each side. I'm going with the obverse was weakly struck. how will this affect grade? reverse looks G6. maybe i'll net it to G4 since there is a full nice date Report this Post to the Staff

CarrsCoins Pillar of the Community United States 756 Posts	Posted 12/30/2022 5:12 pm thanks everyone! I enjoy reading all of your thoughts on the coin. i have it graded at G4. I didnt net it for the scratch on the back. mostly because the reverse is a bit stronger than a 4 in my opinion. Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 12/30/2022 10:22 pm Much better shape than most 1803's you run across these days when bargain hunting. I don't disagree with 4 at the minimum. Smoother copper with what appears to be original surfaces is harder and harder to come by each and every passing day, this is a keeper, and a good exemplar for its variety and die state. I don't think the old reverse scratches hinder the appeal.
