Quote: With Flying Eagles being 88% copper and 12% nickel they turn many different colors........ That is an impressive collection! I appreciate all the feedback. I thought it was xf40 as well. Numismedia has the value at $150 and I got it for less than half of that so I'm happy.

Quote: Nice-looking set! Thanks Coinfrog, I used to collect these when you could get a XF for around $20 - now the prices are getting ridiculous.

It came in yesterday and is darker than the original pic. I think it looks good, but just wondering if you would soak it in Verdi-care or leave it alone?

Festus, I think it looks better than the original pictures - you did well! Acetone and Verdi-Care won't hurt it, so go for it.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures
