CoinHuntingDrew Pillar of the Community United States 4932 Posts	Posted 09/01/2015 10:17 pm Tip of the olive branches on the reverse sort of look like they've experienced a bit of wear, so possibly AU details. Report this Post to the Staff
Russ789 Pillar of the Community United States 623 Posts	Posted 09/01/2015 10:18 pm Curious...what makes it look cleaned? Report this Post to the Staff
BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 09/01/2015 11:52 pm I'd go AU53 and don't see signs of an obvious cleaning, it certainly hasn't been harshly cleaned. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36744 Posts	Posted 09/02/2015 10:48 am Any chance for some better photos with the brightness/contrast turned down a little? No way to tell what the surfaces really look like with these photos. Report this Post to the Staff
Russ789 Pillar of the Community United States 623 Posts	Posted 09/02/2015 11:19 am I shot the pics with a DSLR. The coin is so tiny...I'm afraid those are the best pics I will be able to come up with. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 09/02/2015 3:42 pm I think the flashback might be creating the sense of light wear. Very tough to make a call here. Report this Post to the Staff
Russ789 Pillar of the Community United States 623 Posts	Posted 09/02/2015 3:44 pm Let me try specifically with the camera set to flash off. Report this Post to the Staff
Russ789 Pillar of the Community United States 623 Posts	Posted 09/02/2015 4:11 pm No flash. At 13mm...this coin is very difficult to photograph. Report this Post to the Staff
georgescoins Valued Member United States 431 Posts	Posted 09/02/2015 5:28 pm It looks like it might make unc, but definitely looks at least AU 55. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18663 Posts	Posted 09/02/2015 7:16 pm Don't think its been cleaned at least not harshly. Some dirt appears in the ES of States the C in America and a couple stars lead me to believe this had some light circulation. AU58 Report this Post to the Staff
