Stephenellis710 Valued Member United States 51 Posts	Posted 11/17/2023 6:22 pm Scored this today. More than likely cleaned. Didn't pay much for it. Is it still worth anything cleaned? Also there seems to be some stuck through error rim to rim of the reverse Report this Post to the Staff

ExoGuy Pillar of the Community United States 4416 Posts	Posted 11/17/2023 7:20 pm I agree with Coinfrog .... AU-55/58 details. While the obverse hairlines are a bit distracting, this 1870-S is still a most pleasing type coin; and, one that's easily worth $150+. I would also note there's an extended die crack at 7-8 o'clock on the reverse periphery. Report this Post to the Staff
MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 2003 Posts	Posted 11/17/2023 7:51 pm Some folks would never consider a cleaned coin. Personally I have no problem with a cleaned coin showing this much detail for the right price. As a general rule I usually take into consideration the grade of the details and look up the value. Then I cut that value in half for a "details- cleaned" coin. Others may have a different approach. Report this Post to the Staff

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36741 Posts	Posted 11/19/2023 10:03 am AU-55 details, cleaned. Still a decent coin to put in a type set album. Report this Post to the Staff
