I'll post pics later on the Pocket Piece thread. Just need a modern pic. "We are poor little lambs...who have lost our way...Baa...Baa...Baa" In memory of those members who left us too soon...

Dearborn Moderator United States 94666 Posts	Posted 02/27/2023 9:00 pm Maybe in the images is looks pretty, but in hand it is just black tarnish (just like the tarnish on my Great, Great, Grandmothers Silver tea service.- when I let it tarnish out that is. I try to keep the service set nice and polished. I want nice clean ASE's in my Dansco albums so It had to come out. I used to have a 1900 Morgan as a pocket piece, but I retired it a few years back.

Dearborn Moderator United States 94666 Posts	Posted 03/05/2023 5:41 pm So one week later: I kept the coin in my back pocket all week with the obverse facing forward (against my buttocks). I notice that the reverse got much more polishing than the obverse did. For the next week I'll keep it in the same orientation. (Obverse forward). Collecting since 1972.
