    So, I picked up this Indian Cent as a type coin. Since I am not big on Copper coins (never collected them), what is your opinion of the grade, and toning? Note—scratches are on the slab, not the coin.

    AU-58, a great coin for a type set.

    Unless the pictures are real deceiving
    Better picture of the lower headband would be good to see the
    shape and presence of the 4 diamonds which I use a lot to gauge wear -
    along with hair lines and feathering

    Hint—not an AU coin. The toning makes it harder to see the details in a photo.

    MS63 Red brown
    Reverse is sweet though 64ish

    I guess they didn’t go RB is because of the toning—it looks far more Orange/Brown? I know far less about Copper coinage, so that would be my guess. I like the color, and it looks nice in hand.
