1826 Large Cent

at the 12 o'clock position on the OBV rim, is that a Cud? or just wear?

i am no expert, but it looks to be in the VG-VF range...

Liberty Head (Matron or Coronet) Large Cent General Grading Standards

G4 Good - Head details partly visible. Even wear in date and legends.

VG8 Very Good - LIBERTY, date, stars, legends clear. Part of hair cord visible.

F12 Fine - All hairlines show. Hair cords show uniformly.

VF20 Very Fine - Hair cords only slightly worn. Hairlines only partly worn, all well defined.

EF40 Extremely Fine - Both hair cords stand out sharply. All hairlines sharp.

AU50 About Uncirculated - Only traces of wear on the hair and the highest point on leaves and bow.

MS60 Uncirculated - Typical brown to red surface. No trace of wear.

MS63 Uncirculated - Some distracting contact marks or blemishes in prime focal areas. Luster may be impaired


From the above I'll go with F-12. I can see all hairlines and the hair cords look solid.

Cool Cuds!

Thanks guys. I also went with F12 Details/reverse issues.

Cool coin! Got me to beginning research about it to know more than just that the series exists. I have a couple questions in the regular forum when you guys get a minute.
