Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 09/28/2023 3:34 pm I'll say EF-45 sharpness, but might be a details coin because of the apparent obverse scratch. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18720 Posts	Posted 09/28/2023 4:57 pm Hi XF low AU however the coin shows signs of something applied to the surfaces possibly varnish on both sides or maybe tape residual. if tape that might come off with pure acetone. I don't think the coin will grade straight due the scratch that Coinfrog noted or if varnish was applied. Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75224 Posts	Posted 09/28/2023 11:39 pm I'd say EF at best. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
WalterS New Member Poland 46 Posts	Posted 09/29/2023 02:32 am @panzaldi I think the surface issue is because of bad lightning I had, I will take a better picture today, in reality coin has full brown color. Thank you all, for your grades. Edited by WalterS 09/29/2023 02:35 am Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 09/29/2023 2:44 pm Agree, it does look like yellowed lacquer or varnish. Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36905 Posts	Posted 11/04/2023 5:26 pm An Acetone bath will remove the varnish or glue. Nice EF-45 possibly AU-50 coin. Report this Post to the Staff
