Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5683 Posts	Posted 04/18/2020 03:42 am VF details, not much you can do to conserve it, and not a good candidate for slabbing. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 04/18/2020 10:22 am Agree, VF details (graffiti), shame. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18708 Posts	Posted 04/18/2020 10:28 am based on the look of this coin it has already been cleaned and obviously damaged. although a mid to high VF coin, it would not be wise to send it in. if its a favorite then place it in your album and enjoy it Report this Post to the Staff

Wideglide Pillar of the Community United States 646 Posts	Posted 04/20/2020 5:55 pm Agree with the VF grades. Such a shame someone did that to it, it's otherwise a really nice coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Imag8r Valued Member United States 227 Posts	Posted 04/25/2020 2:09 pm Wideglide I know—kind of makes me nauseated to see that Report this Post to the Staff
mcstone Valued Member United Kingdom 179 Posts	Posted 04/25/2020 3:00 pm Looks like a reluctant payment to the Internal Revenue Service. The graffiti looks old so I'd be happy to keep this one uncaged to best enjoy its details! Great coin :) Edited by mcstone 04/26/2020 04:38 am Report this Post to the Staff
