basebal21 Bedrock of the Community 13014 Posts	Posted 08/04/2012 11:18 pm If I was trying to get a PO1 I would have started with a more worn example. The 5+ for me at least is more a result of the current condition of that coin. The bike rides could speed that up though Report this Post to the Staff

1967Canadapenny Pillar of the Community United States 965 Posts	Posted 08/05/2012 11:48 am basebal21, I think this is more of an experiment than trying specifically for PO-1. In addition, this coin is NCLT. I could have chose another voyaguer dollar in another grade, but it would have been intended for circulation which I didn't want. So... this coin is sort of a compromise between being a voyaguer dollar, and being NCLT. I could have bought one of those 2003 voyaguer dollars, but that was considerably more exspensive.

1967Canadapenny Pillar of the Community United States 965 Posts	Posted 01/09/2013 2:29 pm Alright its been a while, and I thought I would do an update here, what do you think the grade is? I think there are going to be many a angry numismatists after seeing the before and after, but anywho Maybe in another year it will be a Po 1. sorry about the pics, they are not my best.

mysilveryears Pillar of the Community United States 1890 Posts	Posted 01/09/2013 10:53 pm I think a rock tumbler with a handful of small pocket change mixed in is a good way to get this coin to where you want it without wearing holes in your pockets or destroying the surfaces. Orange juice with a lot of pulp is a great tumbling lubricant for small metal pieces- keeps everything shiny. Otherwise, hope you own a sewing machine. Report this Post to the Staff
1967Canadapenny Pillar of the Community United States 965 Posts	Posted 01/10/2013 1:11 pm Its interesting you should say that because I have a really old pair of jeans with lots of holes, grass stains, grease, paint etc... and the pockets are still good as new despite having a fistful of change constantly in my pocket. Then again, I never carry anything else on me except my wallet which has a house key in it. So I don't have to worry about the key poking a hole in my pocket.
