nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15398 Posts	Posted 03/21/2011 9:17 pm Both of these coins have been horribly cleaned and I would not even waste my time trying to authenticate them for you. IMHO ... stay away from both of them ... especially at $325 on a YN budget! David Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
