<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Catbert, post: 420652, member: 12718&quot;]Guess the NGC grade! I bought this coin in April from early copper specialist Doug Bird (super friendly) at the Chicago Central States show. It has a few warts and I wasn&#039;t sure it would slab, but it isn&#039;t a bad example of the type. I will probably upgrade it someday, but for now it is a type that I&#039;d like to keep in my collection. The Matron Head large cent design of Miss Liberty has to be one of the most unflattering of all her renditions, but nonetheless, I like it. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This 1822 mintage is a little over 2M and the variety is a N-6 - a R3 coin. I&#039;m not the best photographer and trying to get good shots on copper and reflective slabs is a bad combination for me.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Please guess the NGC grade:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh297/IndianaCatbert/1822%20Matron%20Cent/1822LargeCent048.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Note the slight reverse rotation (kinda cool to me):</p><p><img src="http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh297/IndianaCatbert/1822%20Matron%20Cent/1822LargeCent027.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>OK, what grade did NGC give for this coin?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
