The search is over

It's not porous, bent, dented, corroded, scratched, cleaned, etc, etc...

Feel free to guess the grade:

I like the color; the classic heads are often black or dark. My grade: strong VF, say 35. On a good day, it might slab 40.

VF-30

Wow! One in a million coin, appears to have beautiful surfaces.

Very PQ very fine, say 35? could be 40.

nicely done

Probably 35, maybe 40.

That is a great looking coin. Congrats on your pickup. Looks to be a strong VF (but I know nothing about large cents)

30

Bingo - VF30 graded by PCGS (rescued from it's tomb now). It was actually the only graded one that I could find at the show. I looked at dozens of raw ones, and they either had problems, or were way over priced. Thanks all!
