lawest Pillar of the Community United States 1998 Posts	Posted 06/16/2023 11:00 am I purchased this one specifically to see if I could bring out some detail on it. It appeared to have an old cleaning so I figured why not. Pictures are before and after Verdi-Care treatment. Also appears to have obverse file marks around the ear. What do you think it would grade at? Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18657 Posts	Posted 06/17/2023 1:34 pm the verdicare did a good job removing the verdigris but as we have previously discussed when you remove a large area of verdigris you have no idea what that did to the surface. the area next to the A came off about as good as it could get. AU details not sure whats going around the ear but I dont think thats PMD or whatever was used would have no way missed hitting the surrounding areas. had to done to the die Report this Post to the Staff

My bad, I didn't even compare dates as it was the only one with file marks. They do have one that's a spiked ear that's pretty cool and one I found. Might be a new variety or my files are just too old. Oregon coin geek.....* GO BEAVS ! ! ! * Report this Post to the Staff
