fine detail, corroded, environmental damage. net AG

 

I concur with Treas

 

Agree with the grade - style 2 hair - I think a S-179. Really hard to tell.

 

I hate the look of crusty , corroded copper Id rather have a brown heavily worn coin. But saying that this is still a nice coin, I would also say fine , corroded

 

Details are F12 imo. :thumb:

 

I like the detail in this coin. The question is now, can the corrossion be stopped.

To stop corrosion I have heard of many different 'fixes'.

However, what makes you think that it will continue?
