Dasaki Pillar of the Community United States 500 Posts	Posted 10/08/2013 1:17 pm This is the best of my Indian Heads by far, condition wise, and I think it was a steal for what I paid for it back in around 2002. I know it has a few issues with verdigris and after noticing it, it's in an acitone bath for what I believe is tape residue on the front that had to have been there when I got the coin, as I never removed it from the original 2x2 until today. It does indeed have the diamonds, here's some better pictures post-acitone. Looks like the residue is gone! Edited by Dasaki 10/09/2013 02:43 am Report this Post to the Staff

supgog Pillar of the Community Israel 2420 Posts	Posted 10/08/2013 1:38 pm Pics are a bit small, but details look XF (or possibly AU, hard to tell from these pics - where are the diamonds? ). I bet that this is not the first acetone bath this coin goes through. You can clearly see the result of the last bath. If I were to buy it, as is, I'd probably pay no more than 3-4$.
