    Do you think this 31-S will grade or bodybag? I'm hoping for VF-30.

    Hey Jack, I think it should grade easily, I see no problems with that coin..............................................Although the problems might be hiding under all that crust and nice green "toning" :rolleyes:

    The 31-S is a date that is actually scarcer in lower circulated grades, it was a known scarce date from the get go and most were retired rather quickly after they came out. Too bad the price cannot be counter reflective in this case to allow for that.

    Jim, your the expert on these. What do you recommend to clean it? It's worth cleaning up I would imagine.

    I put it in my wifes buzzy jewelery cleaner, nothing happen to the coin but I got yelled at, lol.

    or you could try putting it in the dishwasher, and cross your fingers it doesnt turn out like Becky's.
