mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2953 Posts	Posted 05/30/2024 6:53 pm Picked this up last week online somewhere for a price I won't divulge yet, as I want this to be on a future guess-the-price round This was the last date I needed to complete the 1839-1857 large cents but I was looking everywhere for the scarce 1857 till now. I have a tentative personal grade of AU-55 details cleaned (mostly on the obverse) but at least it has no other damage seen except for minor nicks on the obverse. To say I was overall happy would be an understatement (You can use these pictures jbuck ) Report this Post to the Staff

GERMANICVS Pillar of the Community Germany 1849 Posts	Posted 05/30/2024 9:13 pm Unfortunately, I ll have to go with low AU details and badly cleaned. Judging from the pictures, It is not an appealing coin. Maybe some prolonged windowsill would help. Report this Post to the Staff
