    Well, you missed the point entirely, didn't you?

    We are talking about my 89 only, so No I haven't missed any points. The 89 i sent came back as something I never sent in. I had a Windmill 89 lying around in my house and now I magically have 2 Windmill 89's when I purposely sent the much better of the two coins out first. When I got it back I cracked it open and was like wait a second now I have 2 lames. Something happened to my good example. They were night and day differences.

    I would make a suggestion and it is only that. Since you like the coin and want to enhance the appearance. I have used Tarnex Jewelry dip with some success. The effect is rapid and sometimes difficult to detect the cleaning.. If you want to get it graded it will more than likely come back " cleaned". Attempting this dip would only be to benefit your preference for eye appeal. It still will appear cleaned  but shiny. This appears to be a nice detailed coin and I am not sure I would try it with this particular coin. My opinion is that even when a coin goes to NGC Conserve collectors know that the coin has in fact been cleaned professionally. Please don't take this suggestion as a way to do the unthinkable which is cleaning a beautiful coin.

    My 79 has PVC damage, thanks for the tip. I've seen this same PVC damage on a previous coin I had. Strange that it's only on One side. 

    I'm gonna steer clear from the Dips for now 

  3. It would probably cost more to have NGC Conserve it than the coin is actually worth, & I cant send it in for grading for fear of a body bag, I sure do hate coins like these, but the price

    was right and I jumped on it

  4. The Obverse of my 79 was very horribly cloudy, just like you would see when looking at clouds, and has Orange tinge in the corners and hair like it was previously toned.

    The Reverse is absolutely fine.

    I soaked it in Acetone for 2 days, left it on my window sill for one day and put it back in Acetone for another day. I blew it off with air and

    a 25% Improvement. Now it just looks hoaky and fake. Some of the luster & shine is peeking out of the cloudiness where the Acetone did it's job. 

    I was thinking about wholesaling this one out of a flip and letting go. 

    Should I keep it in the Drink and keep going ?

  5. Many try, very few succeed. I recently sold a NGC MS 64 1922 Peace Silver Dollar for 99 usd + Tax and the new coin flipper that bought it just sold it at auction for 75.77.

    I bought that coin for 14 dollars. The grading fee was double.

    You have to be a certain way to make it. Traders will mostly fall flat on their nose.

    I've got a nice 1881 S Morgan that's MS66 with a full Rainbow that I would sell you if you would like a GREAT coin.
