Ok

 

Color and tone have absolutely nothing to do with being a high grade.
How about taking some photos of both sides of the entire coin. How do you expect anyone to give you an estimate of the grade from partial photos?

This is the best shots i can get

 

I cant get a fullshot and have detail as well

 

The scratches that are across the obverse of the coin are obviously from the dye.

 

possible ms68 + [/QUOTE]

Definitely not ms68
Imho, looks damaged to me

 

Actually looks to be circulated ( rims) with a little damage so not a MS coin. Better photos are always a help. Jim

 

There is no way that this coin is MS. Your photos are not very helpful.

Don't bother, it is not an uncirculated coin of any type and is not gradable due to the damage.

 

not brand new, one post is sufficient

 

No way!

Circulation wear.

 

You don't get MS-68 coins from a change machines a raw 68 means no scratches it has to be perfect.Even when they come from the mint unless it is a proof coin which is always put in a container or book at the mint and sealed it will have scratches on it maybe a few might get threw.Someone brought a 2018 penny in January it was graded a 68 for $300.00 go figure.

 

Look at a new cent. Then tell me you think it's MS

 

Oh boy, that coin is way to rough for MS68. The pics are not the best, so Meow cant say for sure. It might not even make it to MS grades, maybe its a AU. Meow has a MS68 State quarter, and it is flawless to the naked eye. But under magnification, slight little tics can be seen here and there. But not as many as the penny in the thread. The penny has way to many small dents in just the rim alone. To find a MS68 coin even in a uncirculated bank roll is almost impossible.

 

Serious question, is this the first wheat cent you’ve seen?

 

Damage. This coin did not leave the mint looking like that.
