Edited---Will re-post after I get it certified....
First, let me say my camera is broken so I tried to scan the coin, and well yeah it doesn't work. This is a well circulated 1793 chain cent in fair-2 condition. The coin is MUCH better than the scans (which doesn't say a lot for the scan), and when I get my camera back I will post a better picture. There is no date visible, but LIBERTY is very clear as well as the outline of the head. The reverse clearly shows all 15 chains as well as one cent and the fraction is very clear. There is a pin hole in the "o" of one cent that only breaks the surface. You can barely make out the "united" and even less so some letters of "America". The rim is in surprisingly good shape. There's one on e-bay right now for BIN for around 2,800 from anaconda.rare.coins but it is certified and mine is raw. Mine does look much better though.
I am asking $2,000 but will take offers, as well as trades for high grade Lincoln Cents (55 Double Die, 22 no D, 09svdb, 14D).
