Won this Large Cent off of ebay and gave it an acetone soak with a Verdi-Care treatment. The ebay pics sucked so I took a chance, and yeah it needed a little help! After the care it doesn't look bad - won it for 12$, grade?

Disagree - Still appears a details coin with lots of crud around star 6 and in center of reverse. This is an ED coin, always will be.

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."

cleaned up nice but I agree the ED crowd. the area around star 6 and dig near star 13 may pull that designation

We're not tough, just honest. Tell you what - submit this to either PCGS or NGC, and if it comes back straight, I'll pay all associated costs,with the whole forum as witness to this promise! Fair?

Yes, it's a details coin, but still nice nonetheless.
