I picked up this 1890 Seated Liberty dime yesterday from the junk silver bin at my coin dealer. I was so excited at the time. This is my first Seated Liberty and I got it for spot! My wife looked at it and said, "You can't even see what it is." Ah, a coin only a coin collector could love.   |

Found this stash recently, but didn't think to put it up here. A bunch of coins, and a telephone token from Thailand:   The scanner really highlights the dirt and damage...makes me wonder if acetone will do any good... |

Bought this yesterday, because my current budget will not allow for the real thing.   |
