Ken_3567 Pillar of the Community United States 651 Posts	Posted 06/26/2007 4:56 pm Looks like a VF20. Also you might want to soak it in some olive oil for a couple of days and rinse with distilled water before more of the obverse dissolves away. Report this Post to the Staff
Lovethebluesman New Member United States 43 Posts	Posted 06/28/2007 9:04 pm Thanks. I'm soaking it now in olive oil to remove the harsh weathering from the coin. Maybe I can get a couple of bucks for this one. Say $8-$12? I'll check the PCGS Price Guide and ebay. I'm leaving some tap water in a cup next to the coin in olive oil. Will that tap water distill in about 5 days of sitting out, or should it sit longer? Report this Post to the Staff
Benji Valued Member United States 459 Posts	Posted 06/28/2007 9:43 pm For water distillation check this link: http://www.thefarm.org/charities/i4.../distill.htm Or you can buy it by the gallon at the grocery store. A rinse with acetone may remove what looks like PVC damage around the rim: http://secure.sciencecompany.com/Ac...659C670.aspx Edited by Benji 06/28/2007 9:46 pm Report this Post to the Staff
