Dearborn Moderator United States 96465 Posts	Posted 03/12/2023 2:05 pm yep, the toning (something I don't like anyway) is fading fast. And yes, that ugly print is almost gone. Too difficult to tell if the design elements are wearing down though. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

hokiefan_82 Pillar of the Community United States 3650 Posts	Posted 06/03/2023 10:46 pm Interesting. Didn't take long to wear off most of the dark toning and all of that palm print. Now you're starting to see a bit of wear on the high points and small marks in the fields. It'll be interesting to see how it continues to progress. Member of SPMC, FCCB, ANA and ANS.

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 06/04/2023 01:35 am My preference also is for ASE's that present with a blast white color, irrespective of condition. I can understand why this coin could be used as a pocket piece. It is OK as a pocket piece, but for most of the Public, who only have a lesser appreciation for numismatics, crown sized coins didn't circulate much, because they weighed too much, and were too big to be regularly carried in pockets. That got me to thinking: How about a common date Mercury set in a removable bezel, and carried on a key ring? Would still make an interesting item for talking about, and hopefully enticing a new individual to the interesting hobby of coin collecting Report this Post to the Staff
