This one has some nice details remaining on it. Some environmental issues on obverse. Reverse looked nice. Looks VF details to me. Did I overpay? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nice-Early-...p=true&rt=nc

obverse look G6, maybe VG8, reverse G4. appears to be cleaned. in any case its details grade for this one. IMO its a $15-18 coin. Sorry, this is not VF coin.

Wow, no way that's just a G-VG coin but it's not quite VF either IMO. I grade it as an F-15 (based on the details in the hair under the ear) but it has been cleaned. You may have paid maybe $5-$10 too much due to the cleaning but, eh, I've made worse purchases before. You may want to try some acetone (although others don't like to use it on copper coins but I have never experienced an issue with using it) on the obverse to get some of that gunk off under the chin and between stars 1-5.

I'm with chester on this one too. F15 details - acetone may help, I'd go with Verdi-Care on this one, might conserve pretty nicely.
