Really nice set of Indians.........

[relicsncoins]

While browsing Indians on Ebay, I ran across this set. Looks to be a really nice in-complete set of Indians. He mentions that some of or all of the coins may have some sort of clear coat on them. The 04 looks like a cameo proof.

I'm sure they won't go cheap as there are a fair number of key dates in that set. The clear coat can likely be removed with an acetone dunk.

Thanks for the post on these. Regarding the "Protectant" that the seller mentions, not being that familiar with that, and realizing the various possible materials used, what are the repercussions of this on a coin such as these? What are the chances of proper and complete removal in order to have coins that will be encapsulated by NGC?

 

Thanks,

I think it's going to depend on what was used to coat them. If it were my set, I would take the least expensive coin and experiment with it. Most likely what ever it is will come off with Acetone or Mineral Spirits.

I've been watching this with interest and some of these coins appear to be absolutely beautiful and quite hard to find. I understand wanting to protect them as I have a 1862 that is minimum MS65 that developed verdigris, but to have the nerve to put a chemical on a set of coins like that is wild at least. I hope for whoever ends up with these that its not damaging and they can be conserved. I figure this auction to end in the $5-6K range. Wow!
