So sad to see that. I sure hope it was done many many many many years ago.
Maybe some hobo did it during the deprssion so now it is more valuable since it is a Hobo Dollar.

The cases are real. The litigants are real. Today in Judge Judy's court:
JJ - I read your complaint Miss Liberty. You accuse Mr. Stew Pidman of ruining your hair.
Will you please explain what happened?
ML - (Ripping off an ill-fitting wig) Just look at it your Honor!
JJ - Oh, yes. As a woman I feel your pain, Miss Liberty. And what is your defense, Mr. Pidman?
SP - I was just strengthening a few of her highlights.
JJ - I've seen and heard enough. Judgement for the plaintive in the amount of $5000.
(Not that humor helps much in this case.)

This coin sold last month in the Goldberg Pre-Long Beach Sale Lot 1371 for $1,553. Not a bad profit for one month.

Just think that coin was around when Napoleon met Joséphine de Beauharnais in France although an American coin.

The "strengthening" and cleaning makes the coin look like a fake, at least that was my first impression looking at it. Ed ANA LM-3175 |

Just to clarify, that's a Spanish fresco "made better" by a Spanish woman. So apparently, all races and nationalities, not just Americans, can be idiots.

I'm familiar with the fresco; I stand corrected.
