I believe this was an EF coin pre-corrosion. It has lost some detail, but still VF details. Net grade of AG, could probably sell for G-4 money. I would like to see a pricing schedule for these corroded Large Cents based on Light/Moderate/Heavy corrosion. Right now, it's a sort of anything goes "worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it" type of thing.
VF 25 sharpness and net graded to a good due to heavy corrosion and dark surfaces. Possible old recoloring. The details are nice and sharp , but the corrosion and dark surfaces severely limits the grade.

VF-30 - 35 details, dark with moderate to heavy porosity/corrosion. Probably net grade as G-5 but I think it has fairly decent appearance and I would be willing to go VG-7 money on it. I haven't attributed it but I think possibly S-257.
