vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 04/18/2015 4:59 pm Not too fast to call it cleaned although it may be. Looks like the lighting possibly. VF25 swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

buddy16cat Pillar of the Community United States 1536 Posts	Posted 04/18/2015 7:15 pm For me, it would depend on the color of the coin. The orange color may be the lighting. If it is tan, not cleaned. If it is orange, I say cleaned. Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 04/18/2015 7:53 pm Here is kind of a tip off for me that it has indeed been cleaned at some point. Look at the fields compared to the protected device areas. You can see a color contrast, especially near the date. Looks like a cool die crack also in E of AMERICA. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
