SaturnD51 Valued Member United States 425 Posts	Posted 04/06/2023 12:52 pm EF but maybe conservation on the coin would help. Probably cost too much for the value. Still I like the coin. I do not have many Liberty nickels but have always liked the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7648 Posts	Posted 04/06/2023 12:59 pm My Two Cents: Not a bad coin but has problems. As is, the coin is a details coin due to the crud. The ticks and scratches might detail it, too. Try removing the black crud at the 10:30 position by gently nudging it with a cotton swab tip soaked in acetone (or alcohol). You may also remove it with a toothpick (very gently) or by using your fingernail. Then give us another pic. I know if it were mine the black stuff would have to come off. Good luck!

If it were mine I would not bother getting her graded. Very nice looking to me also. Cleaned Edited by dsking 04/06/2023 2:51 pm Report this Post to the Staff

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36906 Posts	Posted 04/07/2023 7:23 pm Better eye appeal but still an EF details coin. Report this Post to the Staff
westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7648 Posts	Posted 04/07/2023 9:40 pm Looks much better without the obnoxious black crud. Report this Post to the Staff
nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15571 Posts	Posted 04/08/2023 06:32 am XF40 details, cleaned. Whatever the black spot was it had a reactive effect on the underlying metal as I can now see pitting on the surface below where it used to be. Still - better eye appeal IMO with it removed.
