sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 08/12/2019 8:35 pm Could be a cull. This coin would be too worn to include in any part of my collection. Just put it back in circulation. I have done this with old worn coins myself. Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74019 Posts	Posted 08/13/2019 1:41 pm Awesome find! You could try using warm water, mild soap and a toothbrush to make it look better. Since it's a cull coin already, it wouldn't matter if it was cleaned or not. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 08/13/2019 1:42 pm Report this Post to the Staff
