Looks like an N-3 Eduard.
Actually I would not choose between them. I would collect both - oh wait - I do. :) The two centers are just a higher grade.
Looks to me like someone took a wire brush to the coin and then dipped it in something. Maybe MS70 - that leaves a bluish tone on some of the...
Seeing some of the discussions from the more knowledgable people can be enlightening. But I think I understand what you are saying - sometimes...
Another plain jane from the album.
Good Luck!
I think a tpg called it VF-20, but I would call it F-15.
All threads about large cents are good. :) As it stands I still would not call in VF details and tpgs do make mistakes in my opinion.
Well a bust half and a bust dime are a little different. Based off those pictures I would call it F-details. I think I see enough wear to pull it...
Agreed stay away from the bright silver one cleaned like this one. You can get some nice gun metal grey ones from Harlan J Berk or Northeast in...

Yes - you will see it on here from time to time(pennies, double die, etc.). I would use the correct terms if possible, but then explain it as...

Top is in the one I let go and the bottom is in the album.
I started collecting out of pocket change from my grandma back in the late 60's with my father. Never could afford the local shop back then. Then...
