Hell Friends, Happy weekend, picked up this 1833 large cent which appears to be a nice F or borderline VF grade and more interestingly it looks like the rare N4 variety. Would appreciate if you can pass on your thoughts on the grade and it's N variety. Thanks a lot

I'd say F-15, and yes, N-4 looks correct.

I'll grade it at Fine.
Errers and Varietys.

OK, why cleaned? Too much luster?

Vertical hairline scratches on Liberty's face and the glossy look are cleaning indicators, but the impairment seems minor. I wouldn't be shocked to see this coin in a no-problem VF-20 slab.
So, how scarce is the N-4 variety?

Blotchy color. Looks like it is starting to tone down from the cleaning.

Got the coin in hand and glad I took a chance on this coin. Looks original and uncleanned in my eyes. Any chance of VF for this coin?

I think it is a strong fine, so a VF-20 would not shock me.

The obverse looks like it might make VF, but I think the reverse would hold it to F-15. Nice coin!
