jack jeckel Pillar of the Community United States 5206 Posts	Posted 05/21/2020 8:32 pm I am thinking of buying a collection of Lincoln Cents and Buffalo nickels that someone I knows girlfriend is selling that she inherited from her grandfather after he passed. Unfortunately all of the coppers have been harshly cleaned. So aside from the obvious cleaning does this coin look authentic? Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19146 Posts	Posted 05/21/2020 9:21 pm Looks legit. Years ago I picked up an older folder of wheat cents--all but five holes filled. Sadly, all of the cents earlier than the mid-40s had the very same 'harsh treatment' your coin has. And each coin was at least F or better condition (apart from the cleaning).

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 05/22/2020 3:41 pm IF all the coins look like that, I'd really try to explain that most of the value has been lost due to the cleaning. How complete are the sets? Might have a few valuable coins there. Report this Post to the Staff
