<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ldhair, post: 3107375, member: 11540&quot;]I&#039;m going to try to post one coin each day about something fun. Feel free to add to the thread with something related.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is a fun story. About 25 years ago, the IRS had an auction at a local storage place. They set up chairs for about 60 or 80 people and most of the seats were full. It was a nasty cold rainy day. There was a lot of really nice high dollar art and furniture in each container.</p><p><br /></p><p>One of the lots was a small plastic bag of a hand full of silver half dollars. There were several Kennedy and Walker half dollars in the bag. They would not let you open the bag but I spotted a Barber in the group. I waited in the rain for hours for the lot to come up and bought it at less than the price of silver at the time.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry about the first images but that&#039;s the best I could do back in those days. Notice the green tint to the coin. That&#039;s the early look of PVC. After a few acetone baths it went to PCI but still came back in a problem slab. At some point, I cracked it out and gave acetone a try again. Probably still won&#039;t grade but that&#039;s ok. The last images give you an idea of it&#039;s look today.</p><p><br /></p><p>Please join in with your images of the looks of PVC.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]787630[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]787631[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]787632[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
