    Hi guys,

    Recent Large Cent pickup from ebay. I think this one is in the VF range, maybe 25 or so. What do you guys think?

    Thanks,

    Simon

    Could make it a "details", not sure though. I'll report on it when I get the coin in-hand.

    decent looking coin. Hard to tell the color from the pics. Little bit of corrosion but not too bad. vf details seems right

    I think VF details is the way to go. I think EAC grading would net it at F.

    Well...color certainly is different in-hand. Here is the coin.

    Definitely VF. I'd expect it to see details... looks like some corrosion on the obverse.

    What a beauty that one is! I agree with the VF+ with corrosion on the reverse. Too bad to, the obverse is a beauty!

    Anyone attribute it yet?

    Aside from the bit of corrosion, I really like the color of this one. :) It's a nice chocolatey brown in-hand.

    First glance without doing much research I want to say N-6.
