Thanks RLM for reposting the 1911- very interesting. Hard to see the luster, and that is one of those tricky wooodgrains, but a nice one. Hard...
Wow, great coin and find. Lots of money. Send it to PCGS or NCG, I would.
Since we are assuming you don't have any experience with techniques such as olive oil or mineral oil send to NCS. Nice coin, and they can improve it.
Where have you been eddiespin?? Good to hear from you. I always cut the oil with acetone or xylene. Using warm water (which I have tried) will...
Too many marks for a 66 but the lighting is wrong and it is washing out the coin. I think the luster is very strong, and those bag marks are much...
Definitely genuine now IMO. The upclose makes it clear to me.
Oh, RLM- can you post different photos of your 1911? Maybe angled shots to show the luster or with different lighting? Very interesting coin....
1931 toner This coin keeps changing. Here's the transition. Stored in Intercepts in ait-tite situation in Intercept box, dessicant, etc. I know...
Great pick-ups Urbanchemist. Love the quarter. I just put my quarters back in my Dansco album hoping for some of that great type of toning and...

I really wouldn't worry about it, but search "acetone" here and read GDMSP's instructions. I wouldn't touch it. I damaged my S VDB somewhat with...
JHC- nice post. This coin is tricky. I agree the VDB doesn't look very slanted. Can you post photos of the S and the VDB upclose. The S should...
Thanks guys. Doug- I don't recall doing anything to this coin (it was not "dirty"). The most I did was mineral oil or Coin Care some time ago....
I enjoy reading your predictions Elaine. I think when China and Japan start dumping more of our dollars (China's per capita wealth is...
Very awesome. Mine is very similar with the yellow planchet toning on it's reverse. Great coin
Ok- was having technical difficulties on the photos. All is well. Appreciate any opinions.
I submitted to PCGS and it came back questionable color (Genuine Holder). Anyone think it would grade at NGC. I am about to submit several coins...
51- that's my guess!
Amen. Now your talkin brother. :pencil::pencil::pencil:
How did you figure that out Jack- by what means. I would like to be able to check that kind of stuff.:high5:
