Oh, all early dollars have probably been cleaned at some time in their past. Retoning is a wonderful thing.

not harshly cleaned and the carbon spotting is only slightly detracting for me. Overall a wonderful raw example. Thanks for sharing.

 with Pertinax for both sides. You are talking big values here. Watch for high quality fakes. I read this in the book references I have. Other than that I won't comment further, because I am NOT an expert on these. |

I think it could grade problem-free since these older examples receive breaks. VF30 meat that would likely grade as a VF25.

Very light cleaning, VF-30 Details.
May just regrade Problem-free with a little toning.

Thank you all for your opinions. And I do concur with your grading of VF25 or so for details.
Regarding the light cleaning - I have had this coin out on a tray for 1 1/2 years now and exposed to sunlight, and I do see how toning progresses, but it is quite slow. I guess this has something to do with the relatively little amount of sunlight we get around here!

I agree on vf25 grade. There is a huge market of fakes out there. Be diligent and careful.

Another coin of yours I wish I could own. Thanks for sharing. And the chances of GERMANICVS owning a fake and being unaware at this point? Pretty much seems like zero.

I will go with VF-25. It looks like it may have retoned enough to be deemed market acceptable.
