Paul Bulgerin Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 08/12/2016 6:50 pm I received this 1900 Indian Head in the mail today. It's a high grade coin with nice colors and a little of the "woodie" thing going on on the reverse, but I'm wondering if it might have been cleaned and retoned, so I thought I'd ask for opinions. Sorry for the glare on the edges of the photos, but I took the shots with the coin in the seller's holder in case I send it back. Thanks! Paul Bulgerin Report this Post to the Staff
