1914-S-LWC

Just found this inside a bag. I realize it's been cleaned, but heck...I only paid $.045 for it, and it fills a hole in my "I-Paid-Less-Than-$.05-Per-Coin" Whitman album.

My guess is F12 Details...

The photos don't show it, but in hand, the coin is "too shiny" imho. Especially on the high points. It may have been a very old cleaning, but I feel it has been wiped/cleaned in the past.

Based on the picture it doesn't look cleaned. If it was, it was a very old cleaning.

I think I see a little cheek/jaw separation, it's close. F12/VF20

I don't see where it has been cleaned also.

I can see some light 'wood grain' on the obverse, F-15.
