<p>[QUOTE="libertyseated, post: 210002, member: 8137"]Is the filmy residue on the right side of the obverse due to the coin being dipped? tipped at different angles it has a oil like toned appearence. I bought this and another quarter (1899) from a guy on ebay. They were auctioned as one lot and he had graded them AU/BU. I suspected cleaning or dipping of some sort and put in a $80 bid. I woke up the next day and found that I had won the auction. I recently sold the 1899 for $73 so I guess I'll keep this one at a cost of only $7.</p><p><br /></p><p>Not a bad deal for a suspect coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
