oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5246 Posts	Posted 02/07/2019 09:09 am In terms of eye appeal, very low. Technical grade is hard to establish with the toning but I see very little wear if any. At least AU. I have seen many of those lower purity silver coins tone very badly. Report this Post to the Staff

thisistheshow Pillar of the Community United States 987 Posts	Posted 02/07/2019 09:29 am Would it be a candidate for a dip? I have never done that myself before. The reason I ask is that I picked this up for melt and had a feeling that a nice coin is hiding under there somewhere. Report this Post to the Staff
chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 6514 Posts	Posted 02/07/2019 11:09 am I'm really curious about dipping it too. If you got it for melt you've got a great practice piece. Check out my counterstamped Lincoln Cent collection: http://goccf.com/t/303507 Report this Post to the Staff

Dorado Bedrock of the Community Canada 24885 Posts	Posted 02/08/2019 12:20 am I like it! It took 71 years to have that appearance.. Report this Post to the Staff
tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7955 Posts	Posted 02/08/2019 4:50 pm Are the irregularly shaped black areas pitting? Or are they raised? If raised, have you tried a solvent for organic stuff? (Goo-Gone or acetone) As for the underlying condition, it looks like quite a few rim nicks are visible in the photos? But I agree it could be a good practice piece. Edited by tdziemia 02/08/2019 4:52 pm Report this Post to the Staff
