VF-35 Tougher coin when you get into the VF and higher range. Every one I've seen with the open 3 has a weak reverse. With a mintage of about 60,000 coins, I suspect only one set of dies were used. Underrated issues for sure.

I don't see the cleaning.
What's your evidence?

To me the reverse definitely looks cleaned. Crud left in the crevices between fields and devices, and the same thing on the obverse, but harder to see because of the toning. Might have been cleaned a long time ago. Might have retoned in an album or something. Just my .02

Thanks for the opinions, I really appreciate it.
I have been looking for a Seated Liberty for a few months and this one came in recently.He just put it in the 2x2.It's a little rough on the reverse, but I like it. And he said I could use it towards an upgrade later if I wanted to. Thanks again!
MeadowviewCollector, thanks for the link. If I looked it up right, it is a 105 R4.
I like Your avatar.

VF-35 detail, the obverse looks nice but the reverse detracts a bit.
