TJsCoins Pillar of the Community United States 3229 Posts	Posted 06/28/2013 12:15 am Please grade and comment:) I am fairly certain it has been cleaned but the cleaning (conservation) looks better than the pics are showing. It was marked as having a planchet flaw on the obverse, which I am assuming is the large missing chunk of metal at 1 -2:00. What do you think? Report this Post to the Staff

westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 06/28/2013 12:30 am PMD more likely than a planchet flaw. Grade F12 obverse VF20 reverse, weaker strike on the obverse which is pretty common on FE cents. Cleaned? probably at some point but a long time ago I would guess. A few areas of corossion still show. Net Grade with all the issues, I'd say a G/VG price at best. "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R. Feldman - "And read it" - Me 2013!
