This coin was the perfect example. $36 bucks bought a pretty bad looking coin. The value of that coin has at the very least remained $36 if not gone up $1. Report this Post to the Staff

Sometimes we just want to experiment and I say good job. Since it is for your album, your opinion of the coin is the only one that matters.

Chancellor Sutler Pillar of the Community United States 1372 Posts	Posted 12/23/2009 1:16 pm I am not somebody who cleans every coin either. I wanted a decent example of a Seated Liberty quarter with the motto, and this certainly qualifies to me. There are coins in the 7070 album that are going to set me back a bit...and this issue didn't need to be one of them. I just saw an ended auction for a "cleaned" 1876-S, and it brought 71 dollars...so I think I'm OK. I couldn't find anything that didn't look like the "Pillsbury doughboy" or "Casper" for 36.00. That reverse will tone down. I may leave it sit on the upstairs window sill that gets the morning light for a while. I'm still waiting for my album to arrive anyway. I have a lot of the coins for it already, probably over half, and they all currently reside in airtites. Chancellor Sutler Report this Post to the Staff
