Can you see my hook in his neck on the 3rd picture?

In all seriousness, opinions on grade? I know it is most likely cleaned, and value?

Ive heard of burying them to get a better color or leaving it in the window cell for silver coins anyway

Another two and you'll have a hoard. LOL!!

Probably the best way to get this coin back to a natural look is to carry it in your pocket for at least six months as you need to remove the surface discoloration. Sure, that will wear away at the surface but that's the only way to get the coin looking more like it should.

Hopefully carrying it as a pocket piece won't lower the grade too much.
