$62. Picked up this 1802 large cent to replace a lower grade one in my U.S. Date Set. Looks like S-236 with the big reverse die break. Thoughts? Thanks!

I'd say G-6. Much better than your old one! It's actually an S-232.

VG8 net G5, obv. scratches, light porosity in areas

Very nicely bought for that price. You got a great deal.

G6

only concern would be grading straight due to the scratch's on the obv. I'm betting they would be lenient on those and straight grade it.

This came in. In hand it looks more olive brown. Further thoughts?

Sticking with my original grade of VG8 net G5. It looks quite nice despite the light scratches.
