downtownsf Valued Member United States 71 Posts	Posted 08/21/2013 1:06 pm Hi Everyone, just picked up another Large Cent. What grade would you give this one? It has the verdi forming, might try some acetone later. Report this Post to the Staff

kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 08/21/2013 1:09 pm XF-45 or low AU. But the coin has a verdigris problem. That will either knock the grade down or turn it into a DETAILS coin. Report this Post to the Staff
robbudo Pillar of the Community United States 2757 Posts	Posted 08/21/2013 1:39 pm is there repunching on the flag on the 1? No question in my mind it would get a 'details' grade. Edited by robbudo 08/21/2013 1:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff

1893S Pillar of the Community United States 1554 Posts	Posted 08/22/2013 9:32 pm Acetone or a Xylol soak, then use a A/X soaked Q-Tip and gently go over grime areas...Then some Verdi-care for preservation. Nice LC! Edited by 1893S 08/22/2013 9:43 pm Report this Post to the Staff
