This little guy jumped right out at me. Beautiful toned reverse and nice detail....just waiting for me at the convenience store this afternoon. Got him as change. Common, but just a beauty in its condition. Very nice tone and color and just so even for being in change. Couldn't have been wandering around long given the condition. Opinions?

southerngent Valued Member United States 469 Posts	Posted 02/27/2010 09:32 am That's nice. I'm thinking VF-35, almost EF-40. Report this Post to the Staff
The_Duke Pillar of the Community United States 1745 Posts	Posted 02/27/2010 10:05 am It looks like EF40 details, corroded. Report this Post to the Staff
eddiespin Pillar of the Community United States 1547 Posts	Posted 02/27/2010 10:16 am I'll go a 40, also, and net it down to a 35 for the early-stage corrosion, only because it still has very nice obverse detail. Report this Post to the Staff
KenKat Pillar of the Community United States 4085 Posts	Posted 02/27/2010 10:48 am I was thinking VF-35. What a find from circulation! That had to put a smile on your face. My 7070 US Type Set My 7100 Lincoln Cent Set (now with updates!) Report this Post to the Staff
Jim1953 Pillar of the Community United States 2600 Posts	Posted 02/27/2010 11:09 am RFB, was this a metal detector find? Looks like some I have found. I would net it 35 corroded. Great find, Jim Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19935 Posts	Posted 02/27/2010 1:41 pm Great find! I don't think it's corroded, a little xylene would probably do wonders for this coin. The left reverse is weakly struck. The wheat kernels are just barely rubbed and the obverse is the same. EF/AU, it's a close call! Lincoln Cent Lover!
