Sudz Pillar of the Community United States 1572 Posts	Posted 07/26/2013 11:09 am I know it is not in the best of shape, but may I get grading opinions on this 1972-P 1DO-003 Lincoln Cent? All opinions are appreciated, thanks! Also, would it help if I used Verdi-Care on it? Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

upstate Pillar of the Community United States 3283 Posts	Posted 07/26/2013 1:17 pm Memorial's are not my strong point but based on the cheek separation this coin has got to be VF. I don't think Verdi-care would do anything to the staining but it very well might stop the corrosion on the reverse and in the date. Is this the actual color because the orange suggest a cleaning to me. Great find, good for you! Report this Post to the Staff
Sudz Pillar of the Community United States 1572 Posts	Posted 07/26/2013 2:48 pm It is a normal colored coin, the "Auto-Correct" in my graphics program did that and I didn't catch it. Thanks Upstate! Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19951 Posts	Posted 07/26/2013 3:11 pm Nice, tough DDO. EF-40 It looks to have been cleaned. I would definately address the verdigris using the "toothpick method" with VC. It looks light and should be easily removed. Lincoln Cent Lover!

westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 07/27/2013 02:12 am I think the technical grade is EF40 but I'd give it a solid VF30 due to the spotting holding back the eye appeal.
