<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RonSanderson, post: 3724575, member: 77413&quot;]Another eBay purchase, this time for an 1890 Indian Head cent for around $45.</p><p><br /></p><p>First, this is what I had to work with from the seller:</p><p><img src="https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/IiIAAOSwjyZddk~4/s-l1600.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>So, I first disregarded everything on the 2x2 except the date. I could see some red, and what I could see of the ribbon and diamonds seemed OK. But Proof Like? Unlikely. And Uncirculated+++++? Ditto.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am thinking it&#039;s an AU58. But the fields do flash a red background in the right light, kind of like a proof. But the fields in front of the face look handled.</p><p><br /></p><p>I must admit I toyed with thinking it was MS64 for quite a while. I guess it doesn&#039;t really matter since I&#039;m appreciating it for what it is, not for what someone else tells me it is.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]998584[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>As for proof-like, here&#039;s an actual proof for comparison.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]998585[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
