I tend to focus more on Capped Dimes, but have added a few Seated Dimes over the years: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
These have never been cleaned other than with a rose thorn to remove encrusted earth.
@Marshall, I am attaching pictures of cc25, cc26 and cc27 so you can compare it to your coin. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
