LibertyEagle20 Pillar of the Community United States 1200 Posts	Posted 08/07/2016 5:30 pm Unfortunately I ran across a lot of polished dimes. Now my eyes are playing tricks on me and I'm really struggling to identify original dimes but cleaned ones. I know the pictures aren't the best, but does this look original or cleaned (and why)? Thanks. Edited by LibertyEagle20 08/07/2016 7:34 pm Report this Post to the Staff
