Yes, I am happy with XF anyway :)
As I said, I just ran it under water to get the dirt off. Maybe the scratches are caused from being in 'dirt' being that it is very abrasive?...
How do you tell? I found it at an old home site (since demolished) from the early 20's some 8" down. So if cleaning was done it was back then.
The only cleaning I did was rinse the dirt off it under the tap, did I damage it?
I found it yesterday while metal detecting. Where do you recommend I get it graded. It's probably not worth sending it in to a grading service but...
what do you think this would grade at? [ATTACH] [ATTACH] thanks
