Yes, definitely A to denticle. It's always nice to find a less common variety. Congrats. (the rest is my opinion - you asked) UGLY coin, less than VF. Technically, I 'd say F-15. With the verdigris corrosion on the reverse, the pockmarks all over the obverse, I'd say it's going to be a hard sell, and if it does sell, it probably won't be more than $2. I've been buying and selling on ebay for 18 years, mostly inexpensive coins, and get MAYBE $4 for nice VF 1949's A to denticle. Good luck.

Agree but you can try and give it a Verdi-Care bath.

Saw a video on you tube on cleaning coins without chemicals. Cleaned this with olive oil. came out pretty good I think!

Did the green stuff just disappear or did you pick at it with a toothpick or something?

no picking, just rubbed with olive oil and then washed with soap and water.

The olive oil really didn't change anything, just altered the appearance by lubricating it (like dipping a rusty bolt into oil). All in, a details coin and worth very little.
