    pics are hosted from F/B; I think Zuckers deliberately inverts them GRRR...........

    Circular damage from rolling machines?

    Would the '44 S grade?

    Observations, comments?

    Yes, circular machine damage.

    Questionable color on the 1944-S, and it wouldn't be worth the expense of submitting for professional grading anyway.

    I agree. The 1944-S is common, and it is to expensive to submit for professional grading anyway.

    44-S appears cleaned, I would give it a details grade.
    Common coins like that aren't worth grading.
    It's better practice to look at coins, and look at coins that have grades
    and learn how to grade them yourself. It may not be exact, but it's better
    for you in the long run.

    Probably true MK; but I doubt I'd ever send one off for grading - I'm STRICTLY 'collector'; not 'investor' ;) I'm only wondering if it would make ~58+, with collar ding. Mickey Mouse cam does no justice; I could do better, if it was worth it (more than a $ or 2, or worth more than another cent)

    Don't think it's been cleaned tho'...

    Cents that aren't cleaned are usually brown. If they have been cleaned, they take on a pink or orange color. Which is unnatural for cents. It could be the lighting, and I am only going by the photograph but it doesn't look right.
    I'm not saying you cleaned it. But someone may have before it came into your possession.

    Here's your coin. There is the rim ding you mentioned and some nicks on the vest. The letter R in LIBERTY took a hit.
    And some unusual streaks on the back. And the coin is QC (questionable color).
    It wouldn't be AU because the detail from the left wheat stalk is missing. I don't even think it is XF. VF-details

    Wipe man, WIPE!

    You know - front-to-back, back-to-front, sideways, blot, spin, etc.

    Whatsa' question?

    The flatness also suggests cleaning. If this coin were even XF it would have some mint luster left. But the coin has a flat, dead appearance.
    Fortunately it's only a 44-S. It's a 3 cent coin.
