    I'm not a "large cent guy", but I'm pretty sure that's a scan with the color way off. When I was selling copper, I would always adjust the color to give me the best representation of the coin itself. This seller is in a hurry... a one day sale and a quick scan. I'm always leery of 24 hour auctions.

    all of his coins had that same greenish hue.

    yeah I think the color is off on the pic LCs can be a pain to get the color right on in a pic. Otherwise very nice looking LC for the price. If it is greenish in hand I would suggest a bottle of verdicare to neutralize it. (this is conservation not cleaning if done according to the instructions)

    Yes - I believe at least fine details. I think the coin will be covered with a fine porosity on both sides. Honestly - I would never buy any coin off ebay with pictures this bad. Just my policy. All large cents are nice, some are just nicer than others.

    pics were terrible but I thought I would take a shot. I do have some verdicare to try and I might see if I can sell it to my lcs if I can make a couple bucks. If it looks better in hand I might keep it.
