[QUOTE="sixsix, post: 682366, member: 20180"][FONT=Arial]Hi, OK, maybe just 3 or 4 ( couldn't resist the pun ).:cool: What does the text mean around the bottom of the OBV mean after the ( assayers initials, I think ) R.M.: "40 D. sm. s 20 G. sm. s" ? What are the attributes to grading these coins - how much of the LIBERTAD shows? The Eagle Feathers? I got this as a gift 30 years ago and it was stored in a soft plastic ( PVC - laden, I think ) flip. I did not know this and as you can see it has green slime(?) on it. What can I do to remove it w/o making the finish even worse than it is? Looks like someone really tried to scrub it years back ( no, not me ). Acetone? How long? Is there any value to this coin over and above it's silver content and the fact that it just feels good in the hand? Mike PS: Is it "Reale" or "Real" or either one interchangeably? [/FONT][/QUOTE]
