Agree. This is going to take a special sort of buyer.

Has anyone here used PCGS' Restoration services? Do you think this would be a candidate for that?

53/55 - Perhaps I am alone, but I don't think the look is too bad.

Leave it as is. I find it quite attractive and it would be risky to even attempt any sort of "conservation." It's a nice AU coin and there's no reason at all to monkey with it.

In hand the coin may look totally different. The color could be from the lighting used for the photos.

better off you didnt get it. I think the coin was improperly stored and shows some minor signs of corrosion.

I had a price I was willing to pay, but it passed that. No regrets.
