Please grade. Picked it out of a $3.50 bin filled with 1943 wheats.

Nice find!! BU-60, sadly the cuts on the shoulder won't let it go much higher.

What does the edge look like? I'm asking because that's the best way to tell if it's been re-plated.

I am no pro but looking at the edge makes me think it's re-plated.

NICE COIN! I don't think it's replated, it looks like most of the other low grade MS 1943's out there. The surfaces are honest IMO.

MS-63, it doesn't seem to have enough luster for 64.

Nice details to go with the luster, and the edge looks normal. I also say this hasn't been plated. Cool steelie!
