1845 Large cent grading
I guess I do need a break. I thought I posted this last night? THere are two holes on the obverse. The one looks as a deer print. The other does not have any sign of some one putting a hole in it. It seems as an air pocket. The sides are not turned in or disrupted. It is near the top. The other looks as a tear drop ear ring? The letters are good, the color of the coin makes the letters look well worn, but they are good. Is there a mint mark on these? I like these Large cents. It was when a cent was worth a penny :D

Here are the two holes. It looks as there is a slight gouge below the ear ring? These close ups also show you more of the condition of the coin surface.

Re: 1845 Large cent grading
All the Large Cents where struck in Philadelphia so they don't have a mint mark. I think the shallow holes where caused by air pockets inside the planchet metal and either during the strike or the surface being worn down they where revealed. I have had a couple coins like this.
Re: 1845 Large cent grading
What grade would you say on this coin?

Re: 1845 Large cent grading
I was not far off. I was figuring high G or VG.
