Thanks @John1! I'll check out those links. Had no idea what VAM was. Quote:
Photos are pretty darn good,what are you using? Used an iPhone SE set on top a cup, coin set on a coin cell battery. Fussed with the lighting and zoom to get something that had minimal glare and enough resolution without pixelation to reduce to a 300KB image and still be decent. Used MS Paint to resize/crop. Mini ring light coming today so may be able to improve a bit. Edited by ZanderMan81

XF, but are the surfaces original? Seem a bit off to me and could detail the coin.

What I see are parallel lines in front of her ear, neck by hair and from the N in UNUM to star 10 all going the same direction, that seem excessive for the wear. Could this be a wipe or cleaning? The reverse has marks and that go in different directions and seems fine. It could be completely original (it is certainly not blatantly cleaned) as it is hard to grade from a 2-dimensional image. It could be the photo compression.
