WJeeda Valued Member United States 132 Posts	Posted 11/01/2012 10:40 pm Hey guys, I've got an Indian Head here. good liberty, although Ican't get the best pics. Got it in a roll off ebay (one like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/UNSEARCHED-...em4abdffc51d - had 17 Indian heads, only 5 pennies from 40s and 50s, a decent deal. from now on, I'll be more dutch, but for that cost, I might buy a few more if I had money to spend). anyways, here's the Indian. The pics make it look horrible, but it looks a lot better in hand. maybe a while in acetone would clear some of that junk away? And, this gets me annoyed. What is the real limit for pictures? apparently, it isn't 100 kb, as I've gotten coins down to below that size and it still says that are too large in size. Report this Post to the Staff

WJeeda Valued Member United States 132 Posts	Posted 11/02/2012 4:29 pm I believe it is a big scratch, but we'll see how much better it looks after the recommended treatments above. Thanks guys! Report this Post to the Staff

Captain Morgan Pillar of the Community United States 620 Posts	Posted 11/06/2012 10:52 am AU-50 to me. Olive oil may help bring out the details. But if it was mine I would treat the cent with Verdi care. Report this Post to the Staff
