Three large cents

How will these likely grade?

    I would say details cleaned. They don't look like the correct color to me.

    I think the first one will straight grade. That orange look looks natural to me. Has some die rust. I'm going to guess AU55.

    Just my three cents worth: 1850 AU55, 1814 Good details corroded, 1798 VF details, cleaned, retoned and tooled.

    I think XF (no luster that I can see) on the 1850, cleaned on the 1814, and the 1798 looks off but I'm not sure on it.

    If they straight grade, then 58,8,12

    I like the 50. I'll go 50/55, fwiw

    The 1850 has the same look as a group I submitted 20 years ago. All of them came back MS64 BN. Don't be surprised.

    As for the other two, G04 BN and VF30 BN, if they grade. The 1814 may not grade due to the heavy hit, but it could also be forgiven at the Good grade level. As for the 1798, PCGS calls Environmental Damage on some days, and they grade them with minor porosity on others. I just got a 1797 returned as Environmental Damage that has less porosity than your 1798.

    I think all 3 will straight grade.

    TPG will say:
    63, 8, details. I don't know why nobody likes the 1850.

    wow... I was in the AU58 camp for the first coin, got the second one, but that's a heck of a lot of meat on that 1798 for a 12...

    Nice result. I was thinking everyone was being way too critical of the 1850.
    Also 12 details? Was this an ANACS sub?

    I used ICG; they tend to be tough on cents.
