Thanks Dave, and the best part it was priced like a R-6 or 7.

Here is one I picked up a while ago... What do you think it would grade?

@Dave - it's hard to tell with the light about certain details about the specimen's surfaces. That said, it appears to have trace red, and its strike remains sharp. I'd say somewhere in the AU range.

Dave, beautiful token I'd put it in the range of AU-MS62.
CC Wonderful selections as always.

Here's my latest purchase of an EW Hall token that should arrive tomorrow... Looks to still have some peripheral red remaining. $12 for it and a Millard Fillmore Presidential token... Brief encounter w/ some Verdi-Care once received and will   look better than pictured

I think it looks fine as-is. Why verdi-care?

There are a couple small dark spots on the reverse that I was hoping would come off or at least lighten up a bit.

Like I said, I think it looks great as is. If it were me, and if I thought the spots looked stable, I would personally refrain from using any VerdiCare. I'm not a big fan of the product because I've had mixed results; some being undesirable.
If you should decide to proceed forward, please share your results with photos.
Perhaps you could take some nice framed shots of the specimen before and after. I think it could make a great educational share for other less-experienced folks on the forum who may not have any experience with the product.
Just my two-cents...
Thanks.

Picked up another R-9 store card, this one from Lyons, MI. Lyons is to the northwest of Lansing, MI and is still a very small town.
