I've never certified a coin, should this one be certified? Thanks, Jon.

Certified at VF25 or VF30 problem free is probably near a one hundred fifty (us) dollar coin
It does not need to have hairlines to have been cleaned. It could have been water and a rag in 1879 and that person using that method to wipe it down that time caused a compromise to the originality of the surfaces, hence the questionable color.

Il like it at VF-25. Looks original to me. I would leave it raw if it were me, but I don't slab anything.

I think its strong enough to go VF30. If it was cleaned it was a long time ago
