Didn't see much at the Coin Show in Dedham MA today so I went online and won this Two Cent Piece (sellers photos). Hopefully it may have some original red color.

Wondering if the die crack is a well known one. If I'm feeling ok I'll post some more pictures when it arrives.

I'm thinking MS-63 or perhaps 64. About a $250 coin in a pcgs slab.

9:00 obverse has a rim divot. Otherwise it looks too light/bright/shiny for a 160 year old bronze coin. I hope it's better but it does have UNC detail.

Hard to judge luster in these pics. I would like to see the coin in hand to see if it cartwheels

i agree. would not buy using these photos. the photos are hiding the surfaces. I'm going to bet you're not going to like this one when you get it.

AU-details (cleaned). If this is the seller that I think it is based on the pictures, most of the coins that they sell are cleaned.

I appreciate all the wonderful replies! Now I am excited to see it. I'll do my best to post some better pictures when II have it in hand. Might even try to make one of those white glove video shorts to show the luster if it has it.
