OK, so it isn't a large cent, but its an upgrade for the one I have AND its gorgeous. I can't manage to catch the blues and purples on this coin, but believe me, they are awesome.

This one is gonna go to ANACS. Curious to see what they think. I'm thinking 64.

Good luck, I hope it comes back as you expect or better!

Agree, hit on cheek is likely to hold it to MS-64BN. Lovely coin.

Nice coin but I'm concerned about the color and interrupted luster in the photos as presented

My gut feeling is Unc Details - Cleaned/Questionable Color, but I'll hope that I'm wrong!

Nice toner - has a few marks on it, 63 or maybe 64.

Thanks guys. :)

Oh, this coin is NOT cleaned. Thats simply my crappy photography. As for the color, if they call it questionable, Ill be highly peeved. It is far from that.

grading by photo is not easy. lighting, angle, photo size, orientation all play a role. I can see why had a thought of possible issues with the color. there is way too much glare to see the surfaces properly. if you want a more accurate assessment I suggest at minimum lose the overhead light to get rid of the glare. you may have to play with the location you are shooting in or block the ambient light to achieve it.

no doubt the coin is MS imo. the small scratch is not going to drop the coin an entire grade, however, we really can see the surfaces entirely and I can't call a color on it either

MS64 without better photos

I'm going with MS-63BN. Photos are too small to see all the marks but there are some large ones especially on the reverse.
