I suspect that there will be some of the deeper verdigris left in some spots after Verdigone treatment. You might read some of Thad's ( inventor)...
I think the grade looks reasonable, but it does look like some verdigris has developed on the coin. Whether it was there when graded will probably...
I just can't get the photo of GOD large enough to be sure. Sorry my eyes are not as sharp as they used to be. Jim
Rock, I don't think so. I am also curious about the different color of it that doesn't continue along ( almost as if the bottom part is a separate...
I wonder how the 5 people who gave negative feedback are doing with the flying monkey poo. Jim

Its already in a slab, best to buy as is and enjoy. Jim
I am with Mark on this. I know the saying, but it is like many from high end dealers. Legend and others say the same thing, and I would in their...
