Indian Head at the AU range, probably about a 55.
The 2 cent has been dip cleaned and is suffering from environmental damage. A dip in pure acetone might help, followed by pure water rinse and air dried.

Agree with AU on 1869....The shame of it is that the 2 cent may be too far gone for any straight grade, nice date too!

IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Yea the 1871 didn't pan out tired acetone and verdicare no improvements. Still I am into the 1871 only $5 so it'll go up on ebay this weekend. The 1869' is going to PCGS next trip it looks like a minimum $500 piece, not bad for a $20 investment. |
