See if that grime below the bust will push off with a wood toothpick.

Might want to run the coin through acetone or 70%+ isopropyl alcohol before popping that crud off. Just a quick dunk.

@biker, first welcome to CCF. Second, one of the determinants of grade for this series is how much of the ridges on the wheat sheaves are visible on the rev. Please add in-focus pics to let us help you. Thx.

The detail isn't sharp enough to tell for certain, but your 42 S could be a S/S/S variety.

@biker, consider picking up a cheap ($20) USB camera--you should get much better detail on close-up pics than with your phone.

Lots of good ideas. I am curious about the cleaning recommendations here. Is there a good guide, perhaps in CCF, about safely cleaning coins in ways that will not ruin/devalue them? Thanks in advance.
Stay well, Diy89Nurm7
