Picked this up at local show.
Since I a novice at these, any grading or remarks would be happily accepted.

Nice. Not good at grading so I won't. Just wanted to say that maybe some of badthads verdi-care might be in order on this one?

Thats a wonderful piece wwhitman. I believe its an XF 40. I think the Verdicare would help but then you could very easily have spots on it like the spot on the top left. Great pick up.

I agree with XF40. The verdigris looks stable enough on this particular coin, I would not mess with it. It has very nice detail otherwise. Nice pickup :)

Finding that at a coin show is awesome. I hardly ever see colonial era coins and never have seen a Nova. How much did you pick it up for if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks for your observations.
I paid $180 USD.
I agree with Vermontensium and will not attempt to clean.
