Just got this the other day. What do you guys think of it? I’m thinking AU details but something about it seems off. It weighs correctly and is silver. Maybe a prior cleaning?

Looks AU to me and I don't see anything, except perhaps the digs along the reverse rim, which I wouldn't attribute to lighting artifacts that would get me worried.

An honest and wholesome album coin.

I would call it XF cleaned/rim damage.

That!
Thank you all!
But is it a solid XF

More EF/AU ... but the rim digs on the reverse are a little rough

Not sure if it’s just the lighting, but the color on the upper right obverse (near the RTY of LIBERTY) looks a little off to me. I’d double check that area for signs of a cleaning.
This! I am assembling a set of affordable (less than $100 each, most under $50) mid-to-high grade large cents without obsessing over rim dings or light corrosion.
AU50 details, rim damage. OK for an album coin.
Nice XF. A really neat coin to have.
