Picked this up for $19. Looks like it may have some luster left. However, all those hairlines make me question the integrity of the surfaces.

How do you think I did?

Send as many as you can at 4 bucks each that look like this. Ex F Details and you could sell bucket loads. Just invoice me.

Have to agree with the not too collectible camp. These will always stare back at you with contempt.

I am thinking this coin might not look to bad ..in hand.

It has been cleaned, not sure what it will like if you can get it to tone/darken.

This one of those coins where I have to decide if I want a coin with
very nice details left or a low grade example.

For me .. the cost has to weigh into that decision.

AU details - cleaned

Cleaned coins always look worse in photos than in hand. Lighting high lights things that usually are not seen in hand and to the naked eye.
This one AU-53 details, cleaned. I wouldn't go so far as to say it is noncollectable or only worth melt. The value is decreased some for the cleaning.
