    I didn't say it was cleaned. I was thinking that though but its not really clear enough for me to say it was cleaned.

    Are you a telepath?

    #1 I think VG, the Bison's head is a bit too worn to be F.

    #2 VF, drapery under her bust is clearly defined, lines at top of right leg strongly defined, shield is weak but likely a weak strike to begin with.

    #2 has been dipped plenty of times, details XF/AU

    I think it was cleaned with a acid ,and thiourea dip which took off the luster and retoned a tiny bit .
