    That's a nice one! I think vf-30 at pcgs. No idea what its EAC grade would be.

    Perhaps the images are distorting the color and appearance, but it looks cleaned to me.

    Bad pics, Thats what I thought as well, I got the coin, and it's nice and original. These are the sellers pics.

    Possibly XF40, but my 'official' guess is VF35....

    Looks XF-ish to me, but I'll echo the previous post.

    I would agree with Mark, but copper that's cleaned and absent harse hairlines will get holdered. In fact I would like to see any old copper with wear that hasn't been "touched up". As for PCGS I would believe that they graded on details at 40. The drapery at bust is strong, and the hair is ok. I would buy it at 30-35 money. Nice coin. EAC would probably be about 25ish.

    Color looks too uniform. I say genuine also.

    It came in at a PCGS 40.

    I think it's borderline XF, honestly. This pics really aren't very representational, which is why I did this guess the coin thread...the pic looks terrible, but the coin is very nice looking in hand.
