g048406 Pillar of the Community 861 Posts	Posted 09/08/2014 02:55 am I think this guy went a little nuts with his "hue" setting: http://www.ebay.com/itm/151401245469?ru=http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html%3F_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=151401245469&_rdc=1 Apparently he must feel it will draw the viewers attention away from the graffiti and the repairs. Hurts my eyes looking at all that blue. Report this Post to the Staff

JSabatke Valued Member United States 114 Posts	Posted 09/08/2014 03:51 am This is an original "blued" coin. Bluing came out of gun manufacturing as a means to keep them from rusting and this specimen has a lovely "blued" tone that will ensure environmental damage will never afflict this coin. Don't clean it or try to re-preserve the coin with modern bluing as you will damage the monstrous value that this coin has acquired over the years. This is a beautiful piece of preserved history that could only be exceeded if it were pickled in a jar of pork hocks for a couple hundred years. Report this Post to the Staff
