Nice looking coin.
This one will be tough. I will have to give it some thought on what I think I would pay for it.
All I can do is agree with the other - looks like you have a nice collection going, so congrats.
Well - first I have never really tried to grade barber coinage. Second just because it has XF on it does not mean I agree - it would not matter...
It is certainly interesting. Not really sure what it is myself.
Why not? From the dealer perspective of course - not a collector selling to you. I guess I don't understand. Not to side track what from what...
Yes - but die polish lines are raised on the coin and lines from cleaning are incused. On shield nickels you can see them around the annulet and...

Looks like verdigris to me - looks like it has already started eating into the coin. Then again I am not an expert on verdigris versus PVC.
Thanks Noost. That explains why I could not find it with a search on airtite.
Seemed to me someone once said put it in the freezer. I can't seem to find the thread. It seems to me there were a couple of suggestions.
I rolled throught them quickly: 1909 64 1909 65 1986 D 66 1987 D 66 1933 65 1945 D 66 1995 67 2006 66 - Seemed spotty to me....
