I inherited this one from my great grandfather, it's been in the same folder for at least 30 years, before that I couldn't say what was done to it, if anything. Had to get it out of the folder since I think the plastic is no good.

Here's another. 1853 Braided Hair Half Cent. Looks to be about 35-40. Not sure what to make of the rim damage.

 

1803 Draped Bust, small date/small fraction (S-253?), AG-3 or G-4, some minor corrosion from the album it used to be in.

 

1867 Two Cent Piece. Looks to be about AU50.
