62 was my guess before seeing the reveal. I looked hard for rub but couldn't see any.
A couple of years ago, I thought I had spotted a rare 1875-s "micro s" (raw) on a west coast seller's site. The photos while not large looked ok....
If it isn't the look you like,then pass by all means. It has the dirty gray look that to me means "un dipped." As long as Lady Liberty doesn't...
I often have trouble telling luster breaks from actual cuts and abrasions. I'm going to guess MS63.
NIce large cents. I don't find the cleaning obtrusive.
That central punch mark sort of kills it for me. I don't think it's a "Chinese chop mark" either, although I'm not an expert on those.

The photos may just be suboptimal. An in hand inspection may look totally different. With this being a very common issue, you can avoid the...
Looks good to me. Did you check the weight?
The 73-cc is clearly a fake, all the details are mushy, I have doubts about the 75 CC but the images don't enlarge when I click on them. Large...
I like it a lot, especially how the dark background brings out the fine details, like the rays.
Thanks for the extra photos. Edge reeding looks good. the surfaces on the obv look better than I thought on the first set of photos. Short of...
Did you take a close look at the edge reeding? I find that forgers generally ignore that area.
I tried to talk myself down from 66, but couldn't do it. :doctor:
