Everyone's eye is pretty sharp it is graded EF-40 Obverse 1, no mention of the 2/1 obverse that Okie mention's or of the DDO that gidjit mentioned. I agree with all comments and that I think it has an early cleaning that ICCS never included on the certificate but all in all I very happy to add to my collection and like mentioned a very hard Victoria large cent to find in any condition |

I scrolled down to pipe in with my guesstimate at EF40+ ...
... and saw the EF40. Nice!

I new this was a cleaned coin when I sent it off to PCGS, but wanted it in a hard slab that's recognised by all collectors and PCGS commands that from most collectors . If it wasn't cleaned it would have been the highest graded 1882 DDO by PCGS I'm still a happy camper with it even if it was labelled AU detailed (cleaned)  Edited by papeldog

That is gorgeous - and the cleaning effect is not so terrible - it's the full-on salmon pink that is most deplorable. Sometimes I think we should relax about the cleaning issue and just enjoy the whole collecting experience. I mean - we should still not clean coins but maybe we shouldn't be quite so uniformly hard on the coins that have been cleaned. The detail and surface on that one is quite nice.

Could we see the other side of the original coin?

Here's the Reverse Coinfrog its in the hard slab now. Like Silver101 has mentioned (cleaned) means the opposite and is actually a dirty word in coin collecting. I'm not to worried about it being cleaned as its not a cleaning with rub or scratches visible on the surface the colour is what gave it the detail.  |
