DOCC Pillar of the Community United States 1502 Posts	Posted 07/03/2023 11:29 pm Ground find today, apologies for horrible images but I seek confirmation of this being a small S before tossing in the LWC cull bin. If I am wrong and it is a large S, I'll go thru conservation steps. Thanks, Happy 4th to All Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 100411 Posts	Posted 07/03/2023 11:56 pm your images are great - the coin is horrible. as for the 'S', it is either a large or a small one With all the present corrosion, it is hard to tell, maybe an Acetone soak could clear things up a tiny bit.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 76016 Posts	Posted 07/04/2023 12:00 am I can't tell if it's a Large S or Small S. Maybe try an Acetone soak and Verdi-Care. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
DOCC Pillar of the Community United States 1502 Posts	Posted 07/04/2023 12:14 am No need for sorry's. I'm in agreement however I always appreciate confirmations - especially with a variety like this that has little evidence to go on. Details look fairly strong under scope so I might see how far I can get thru conservation. Report this Post to the Staff
