Here you will find a penny that I found that was in a ring setting. It does not have any holes drilled or anything like that, it was encircled by a piece of metal. The reverse side had what I believe is paint on it, and the obverse was covered by the ring backing. The pic of the obverse does not show that there is still a lot of the original color, and would be considered R/B when graded. This is what I was trying to explain in another forum about the shiny silver looking penny. My question here is should I try and remove the paint, I believe it is paint, or should I just leave it as is, and try to grade it?
