Have a look at this nice 1894 5C piece. I'm still trying to perfect coin phtography. these pictures do not show the nice rainbow toning or the luster peeking through.

What is your opinion on grade please.

I'll post more 5C pieces later if you wish to see more.

I would place this coin at EF-40, mostly because of the bangs and nicks it has suffered, the toning would I am sure give a potential buyer pause for thought however in my opinion the scratches etc really lower the coins appeal.
There appears to be something not quite right with the reverse, but I am unable to put my finger on it, perhaps it is the way the pic was taken..

Desirable date! Attractive toning. It's an EF.

Looks like au50 to me, the cheek has a little damage could be bag marks.
I really don't see any wear in the pics.

Looks AU55 to me, very little wear on it. Hard to judge the lustre by those photos though.
