cjartist Valued Member United States 114 Posts	Posted 08/24/2014 09:29 am Thanks for the feedback! Despite the scratches, I do like the slight contrast on the obverse, and the overall luster. Report this Post to the Staff
CherreePicker Valued Member 440 Posts	Posted 08/24/2014 09:41 am What caught my eye were the halos around the stars on the obverse. May indicate an earlier cleaning. Report this Post to the Staff
cjartist Valued Member United States 114 Posts	Posted 08/24/2014 10:45 am Yeah, maybe. What I never understood though is why the obverse would be marked up and not the reverse. The toning is the same on both sides. Though maybe they did a better cleaning on the reverse. Report this Post to the Staff

Joe2007 Pillar of the Community United States 3843 Posts	Posted 08/24/2014 5:23 pm AU-details. It is unusually dark, I wonder if the dark crust that has developed on this coin was added artificially to help mask other defects. Report this Post to the Staff
