Prethen Pillar of the Community United States 3234 Posts	Posted 01/26/2012 2:04 pm What do you guys think of this one? I will say it definitely has been cleaned/dipped in the past because the coin is completely yellow (but not a bright canary yellow). The pictures don't quite show that the coin is yellow as it is in hand. Some luster, as you should be able to see in the photos, remains in the protected areas like around the rims.

Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 2:03 pm I have his little brother in my dansco album. It is a 1873 Open 3 $1 coin, and I never noticed there was a design difference between the two coins of the same date until I saw this one. The $1 coin is the Indian head of this date and the $2 1/2 is the Liberty head design. Guess thats what I get for not paying attention Report this Post to the Staff
