    Hey everyone,

    I recently purchased this 1907 Indian Head Cent. I'm thinking about sending it to PCGS, but I'm worried they will slab it as artificially toned. Do you think the coloring on it is natural? What do you think it will grade?

    I think the coin is MS but I also think it will end up in a Genuine holder for questionable toning.

    She's a slider with questionable color (fully agree with Tom, AT without a doubt) IMHO. IHCs just don't tone like that, and it really takes the experience that comes from looking at thousands upon thousands of coins to get a sense of what natural toning should look like.

    Thanks for the input everyone. I'll save my slabbing $$$ and keep it with my raw coin collection.
