ThomasJefferson Valued Member United States 130 Posts	Posted 12/25/2013 12:47 pm Though my specialization in Newfoundland coins commands my attention and budget, I was gripped by the toning of this 1858 5 cent purchased from a jewelry store for $40. It looks to me like an old cleaning that sat in a Whitman folder for some years. How would you grade this coin? Was it a good buy? Report this Post to the Staff

doubleeagle59 Pillar of the Community Canada 2495 Posts	Posted 12/27/2013 08:05 am I think you've hit the nail on the head with "looks to me like an old cleaning (perhaps old 'dipping') that sat in a Whitman folder for some years." Still, a very nice coin and well worth the money. Report this Post to the Staff
