bsshog40 Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 I like the looks of the coin. At some angles, looks like it may have some golden toning on it also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beard-migration Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Thanks bsshog40, I looked at a bunch of coins, and asked tons of questions, there are some I almost bought but after asking the seller he stated they had been cleaned at one point which turned me away, they still went for about the same price as I picked up this one for, I paid a little over FMV but wanted this coin pretty bad for Aliyah's collection, Im still a novice when it comes to this, and am having trouble spotting if a coin has been cleaned or not, been burned a few times but lessons learned -nathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsshog40 Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Well sometimes others can detect cleaning better than I can but I would presume that with some of the golden tone I was seeing, if it was cleaned, it would've been a long time ago. JMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beard-migration Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 The specimen I bought hasn't been cleaned, the other ones I was looking at that went for about the same price as the one I bought were cleaned so I passed on them, they just looked to much of a blast white and made me question them so I asked and sure enough they had been, so I ended up passing on those and getting the one I posted I'll post pictures when I receive it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elbesaar Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Hey Elbesaar Great Commem If I where to guess would I be close at MS65? Alan Thx, Alan. No - its not a 65. I think it'll end up in a 65 holder one of these days, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
