<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 26066859, member: 101855&quot;]When I lived in New Jersey, back in the 1970s, a friend of a friend had a 1796 Cap cent which was part of a family hoard. It was really quiet. The sharpness grade was VF, as memory serves. The trouble was he had tried to “improve it” by shining it. His method of restoration was polishing it by ribbing the coin on a carpet. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie57" alt=":jawdrop:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
