    I'd say a 63-64 only because of the two minor scratches on the reverse. What are your opinions?

    I see potential rub on the leg of seated Britannia on the reverse. The grade would be highly dependent on that, so maybe anywhere from AU55-MS63 would be feasible. I know, not very helpful...

    Over here I would say EF with traces of lustre.

    Beautiful coin admrose, but like brg says, possible rub on the leg. Best to see this one in hand. I would have to say AU-55 /58 without a better look.

    Yes I'm seeing the rub now. Slight but there nonetheless. Hard to find any old pennies without it unfortunately. For the price I paid I'll be more than happy with AU though.

    As long as you're happy with it that's all that counts.
