    I've learned not to disagree with experts, such as yourself- especially when you are correct.

    I lean to authentic.

    First glance I do think it is cleaned, not original mint red, at least from what I see in the image. There is a series of 1848 counterfeit large cents, but from memory I believe the contemporary counterfeits are a small date. I’m leaning towards genuine.
