Recently picked this up. Seller's pictures, not in hand yet.






The mailman came late today, here are a couple pics by me. In hand, it's more of a tobacco brown.

Identifying Cleaned Coins - Recommended Reading?

My grading skills have improved quite a bit over the last couple years, I think. The next skill I really need to improve upon, is distinguishing coins that have been cleaned. After all, there can be a much bigger value difference between a cleaned coin vs uncleaned, than perhaps between a VF and EF coin. Does anyone have any recommendations (books, reading materials or YouTube) on identifying cleaned coins? Thanks for any help and suggestions!

Pretty coin! I think it would make VG-8, maybe 10.

I'd say VF-20, but don't take my grades seriously... I just had coronary bypass surgery yesterday, and I'm laying in a hospital bed all doped up.

I was bouncing back and forth between VG-10 and F-12. It looks more 12 to me, and that is most likely what I would have given it. And I'm generally a conservative grader.

As usual, you guys are good. A couple a little high, couple a little low, but most of you right on the money.

Too much wear on her hair to make EF, IMO. I'm at VF-30.
