Is it fully lusterous?


No. Some luster is still present but it's been agressively cleaned.

Likely WAS a heavily toned MS piece that somebody tore up with the cleaning. Since this is a $1,000 coin in AU58 and I paid well under half of that? I'm okay with it. It's just too bad because the detail here is outstanding.

That's pretty darn harshly cleaned, but if you got it real cheap, it works. capped bust halves are great for flipping on ebay, but its hard to win them cheap. When you do however, you're almost always guaranteed to double your money if you list the coin properly.

I sent her to PCGS and the results came in tonight. PCGS CC quarterly special is $10 TrueView images which I added along with Overton attribution. Results were as expected.
