It's been in a old board a longtime hence the toning,
But is it an O mint really weird toning?

Oh and any canadian collectors is the 1875 a Small or Large date

    The 1875 is a large date also.

    I would say it's an "O", and a good candidate for NCS.

    Keep that coin away from NCS! It ought to grade fine just as it is.

    And yes, IMO, and from where I sit, it's a real 1895-O

    NCS can't do much of anything about a totally original heavily worn coin.

    That coin is NOT a candidate for NCS ruination/conservation.

    nice one ... well, really ugly, but hey, 95-O's are scarce as heck image

    and I concur, the 1875 is the large date variety
