The plastic over the left side obverse is cloudy, obscuring part of IGWT. On the coin the full IGWT inscription is struck as well as the word Trust. Report this Post to the Staff

SilverStackerKid Pillar of the Community United States 6478 Posts	Posted 02/07/2019 6:47 pm I'm gonna guess it was slabbed at AU50 and some of the damage has happened over time. Report this Post to the Staff

nick10 Pillar of the Community United States 3207 Posts	Posted 02/07/2019 10:25 pm The damage and cleaning mentions surprise me. Help me learn what you are seeing. The spotting is a negative that I do not recall when buying it many years ago. The spotting is amplified by the photo. The red around the edges looks original to me. Maybe the photos are not capturing the color correctly? Report this Post to the Staff

acloco Pillar of the Community United States 3540 Posts	Posted 02/07/2019 11:14 pm Could you post a couple more pictures please? Something about 8 inches from the lens if possible. Obverse is XF+, might go AU, but, definitely cleaned. Reverse...actually is AU maybe slider UNC! Report this Post to the Staff
SilverStackerKid Pillar of the Community United States 6478 Posts	Posted 02/08/2019 12:26 am By damage I was referring to the spotting it's hard to tell if it's taken over a lot of the coin. I don't see any signs that it's been cleaned like people are saying though. And it looks pretty solid at au50. I wonder what the answer is hahah the suspense on this one is killing me.

acloco Pillar of the Community United States 3540 Posts	Posted 02/08/2019 1:39 pm Is the top of the serif of the S....really missing? Report this Post to the Staff
nick10 Pillar of the Community United States 3207 Posts	Posted 02/08/2019 2:05 pm The S is complete, a scratch on the slab is obscuring it. WipeNew seems to work on car headlights, maybe I can try it on this slab. Report this Post to the Staff
