This is a debatable matter, and sometimes an emotional one. IMO, the first 7 are counterfeits...reproductions of real coins, most with sloppy...
My guess is they'll all grade. I'd give them a good hard look before I sent in anything I didn't feel had a shot at 70. Lance.
You probably mean Verdicare, right? Used to be called Verdigone. Don't know what Verdiclean is. Acetone and xylene can have a peculiar effect on...

I don't know why this one eluded me so long. I looked for a couple of years. But one came along. A pleasant AU50, ex-Jules Reiver. Here it is,...
Lovely busties, ldhair. Owle, that would be a lettered 1836. The reeded-edge 1836's are quite scarce and very expensive. It would be fun coin to...
Here's my only draped bust dollar, along with a capped bust half. Lance. [IMG][IMG] [IMG][IMG]
