yelimsexa Valued Member United States 186 Posts	Posted 03/28/2016 11:03 am I didn't see any hairlines/artificial toning, and IMO the coin looks closer to the VF30 and VF35 coins on Photograde than it does to this certified NGC coin in the link I've provided (which is a low VF in terms of details). Cleaned or not, I enjoy the eye appeal of this coin. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1849-BRAIDE...AOSwxvxW8Gzi Edited by yelimsexa 03/28/2016 11:06 am Report this Post to the Staff
CollegeBarbers Pillar of the Community United States 2627 Posts	Posted 03/28/2016 1:22 pm I don't see any indications of it being cleaned, so I would say VF-35. It's a nice looking coin, great pickup! ANA and IBNS member YouTube channel 7070 type set Walking Liberty set Want list Trade list Report this Post to the Staff
jerryc39 Pillar of the Community United States 3163 Posts	Posted 03/28/2016 3:19 pm could be the lighting but it looks too reddish in color not to have been messed with IMO Report this Post to the Staff
yelimsexa Valued Member United States 186 Posts	Posted 03/28/2016 3:44 pm Here is another link courtesy of the auction I won. I guess the lighting didn't do much justice. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1849-Large-...p=true&rt=nc Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 03/28/2016 4:32 pm VF-35, but I agree it was possibly cleaned based on link pics. Edited by Coinfrog 03/28/2016 4:34 pm Report this Post to the Staff
