    Your cents have been polished. They would receive altered surfaces from a grading company.

    That coin would not receive an MS65 grade. I would say it might get UNC Details if you're lucky. It has definitely been intentionally damaged - either dipped, polished, or cleaned. Definitely not a fully authentic coin.

    All your cents are heavily polished.

    That's the highest polished cent I've ever seen. It would grade details or damaged.

    I'm sorry this coin will not be polished or cleaned, it must have always been in a cardboard bag, now released after 50 years. the photos of my mobile phone do not offer real colors I'll show you new photos and you'll be a very normal currency even weighs 3.22 grams and be a nice bright red copper

    Your photos show a polished coin, color isn't the problem loss of all it's luster is.
    All polished coins have a deep red just like your shows.

    Last month, I got 4 coins that were uncirculated in a box of pennies. A 1959 D, a 1960D and (2) 1964D...all were in mint condition with no scratches and polished. I sent them out for grading. Once I get those 4 back from PCSG, I will post them.

    How much did you pay to get these graded, and how much could you have bought them for already graded?

    Imop... it looks to me it’s been replated... I just notice the rim and see “vary shinny” ding marks! And the reverse the wheats stocks don’t look right either.

    Some of us I think have just gotten used to folks that can't spell or let a computer try and proof read for them. I have young ins, and learning to spell wasn't too long ago for them.
