BigSilver Pillar of the Community United States 2843 Posts	Posted 12/28/2020 08:10 am Unfortunately that coin has been polished to death. And what you are calling luster, is polish sheen. Worth only melt. Report this Post to the Staff

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10038 Posts	Posted 12/28/2020 2:28 pm I got one of those sets form the bank when they used to pass them out for opening an account - happened in a time almost "yesteryear" itself! The coins were not only highly polished, but they also had plated the 1943 cent in the set to make it shiny. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?
