[QUOTE="HandsomeToad, post: 451398, member: 12965"]Howdy fellow coin peeps, :) I recently acquired a badly corroded 1800 Draped Bust Cent and after soaking it in vinegar for a couple of days, all of the deep corrosion was gone and I could finally attribute it . . . . or so I thought. I've sent the pics to several peeps and we are somewhat divided on what it is and one person even said I might want to send it to Bob Grellman, since it's such a difficult one to attribute. :eek: So here it is: [IMG]http://img133.imageshack.us/img133/7708/1800obvzk3.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/5928/1800revcy5.jpg[/IMG] I don't want to say what I think it is or what anyone else thinks it is, so it doesn't affect what you think it is. ;) For attributing, Tom Deck's website is awesome: [URL]http://www.largecents.net/collection/photoindex.html[/URL] And you can also use Heritage: [URL]http://coins.ha.com[/URL] Happy attributing! :thumb: Ribbit :) Ps: After soaking a copper in vinegar, that's really badly corroded, I always soak it for a day in baking soda water to neutralize the acid from the vinegar, then rinse it throughly with fresh water. ;)[/QUOTE]
