I don't think I can conclude but so much from these photos. Luster could be anywhere from 55 to MS, if MS marks and probably dipping would keep...
Yes, graded 45. good eyes! the other one is a F15.
Congrats, cooper, that's a great looking coin! here is one of my 74-cc wide cc's, not sure how I wound up with 2 of them. [IMG][IMG]

Glad you are still here and posting! Happy 7th anniversary. Nice wholesome half cent with interesting history.
I guessed AU; despite the cleaning plenty of detail and a nice example of a beautiful design
Nice coin, cooper12, and some interesting research on the variety. 73-P's are not that easy to find and overshadowed by the CC's. Here is my...
