Hello everyone. Next up is a

Need clarification on the date the 5 seems a bit wonky. What do you all think? As always thank you in advance.

I don't see anything that indicates it being a 51/81. Just looks like a nice problem free large cent to me.

 

Thanks Yolo. The 5 looked weird to me so I wantedto check it out.

 

What condition/grade would you say it's in approximately?

 

IMO, obverse, VF35, reverse, VF30. I'll say VF30.

 

Thank you Robert

 

Here's a photo of the 51/81 overdate:


I think a generous grader would give it a VF 35

 

hehe I looked at and copied that exact image and was going to post it tom.. but I agree from the pics it does not appear to be... in hand under a loop i might think different Very nice 51 though...

 

Thank you. You all are great!

 

Thank you. I appreciate it.

 

Thank you. As a novice collector I sometimes get a little paranoid that I am missing some type of error lol.
