<p>[QUOTE=&quot;scooterv, post: 1765222, member: 56677&quot;]I discovered this in my Grandfather&#039;s dresser a few years ago, in a small box full of heavily circulated Indian Head cents.&nbsp; I&#039;ve since been contemplating having it sent off for grading.&nbsp; Coming back in a slab would be an added bonus now that it also has sentimental value.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As a child I did the Whitman folder thing, but since finding this coin I have found a new interest.&nbsp; I&#039;ve actually learned to use a 2x2!!&nbsp; I&#039;ve also started picking up cheap/er graded proofs.&nbsp; I still have almost zero grading skills though (I need to join the local coin club and maybe help me improve).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Anyway, what are some thoughts on the possible grade for this coin?&nbsp; Also, any signs of cleaning?&nbsp; I also have a concern with some of the spotting around the stars on the left side of the obverse, as well as in her hair.&nbsp; Is this any kind of environmental or PVC damage which would just get the coin sent right back to me?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Thanks for any input, thoughts, and opinions <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://vancaster.net/images/1854obverse.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://vancaster.net/images/1854reverse.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
