    Polished, or cleaned... Still, a 78 year-old coin

    Looks like it was badly corroded, then polished.

    Looks like an older cleaning to me. Not polished.
    It should be a brown coin with that much wear on the jaw and cheekbone.IMO

    You were correct. It has indeed been polished.

    Polished or not, it is still just a well worn, circulated cent.
