10 Years of Window Sill Toning: Cleaned 1880 Seated Quarter

Thank you, Ike Skywalker. Those envelopes look interesting. It is maybe worth a trial with low value coins. I may get a pack of those.

I had bought many coins in the past at the Gimbels in the Green Acres Shopping Center in Valley Stream, Long Island. It was quite a large section for the time.

 

You’re welcome. I asked the seller about sulfur content, and he said he believes they do contain sulfur. They are manufactured in United Arab Emirates according to the listed info.

 

Try laying the coin on some newspaper, preferably the
Sunday comic section. After a few months you should have
some decent results. I toned dozens of Morgans this
way back in the 80's. Only one was rejected by a TPG,
ANACS, sent to PCGS and it straight graded.

 

Next time, don't forget to flip the coin over every other day - wear gloves

 

JP's Corner carries the 2x2's.

I actually like it the way it is...might make a nice pocket piece for awhile.

 

I like it, I did the same with an overdipped Barber quarter, years ago, but not for 10 years.

A "Widow's Walk" was a structure on the roof of a home located along the coastal Atlantic waters where the wives of seafaring fisherman would go to be on the lookout for the ships returning home with their husbands.
