Coinbuf Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 That is not what an uncirculated Indian cent looks like, not even close. There are many resources on this site and the web in general that you can use to see what an uncirculated coin would look like and how your coin would grade.

Popular Post James Zyskowski Posted February 1, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) Howdy. A little trick I use is to look for any signs of wear on the high points. The devices need to be crisp, not perfect, but clear. Look at a new coin and imagine yours in similar condition and deduct for wear and dings. It really does take time and study. 😉 Edited February 1, 2022 by James Zyskowski Wayne26, RonnieR131 and tj96 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
