Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 07/19/2015 10:35 pm Hard to tell with your pictures a little blurry, but for a coin of that age I would be suspect with it that was cleaned once. The dirty/dark areas along the rim and clean fields are suspicious Report this Post to the Staff
nilgandi New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 07/19/2015 10:42 pm These pictures are from an auction so I am wondering in your opinion how much would this be worth even though it was cleaned. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 07/20/2015 3:38 pm Right, and worth no more than bullion. I wouldn't spend my money on it. Report this Post to the Staff
