DOS centavos 1882

Yes I agree with Maxfli.
In the new photo you can see the bright orange areas on both sides.
This coin has been cleaned, ruining it's value.
$5-$10 max.

"an intelligent collector" would see that this coin is cleaned and has a lot of damage and you would be lucky to get $15-20 here. Good luck finding a buyer.



Put it up for auction and let us know how much it got.

has some damage , but not cleaned.

 

There he is!!! It seemed strange to me that someone had not arrived yet with the usual story of a merlin magician on duty who sees from a photo a coin washed and polished perhaps 50 years ago.

 

You don't need to be a magician to see that the coin has been harshly cleaned and suffered significant damage from gouges and rim bruises. This should be something a novice collector should be able to see easily. How cold you spot a Zerbe proof dollar that was missed by the experts and not see the unnatural color and damage

 

A copper coin is a coin to circulate among people, certainly not a silver Proof collector's coin. It is normal for him to be damaged especially when it comes to cents. Not all collectors can afford MS65

 

@gianni I am sorry that you can not see that unnatural color red/orange is obviously cleaned. It does not matter if this coin was cleaned 50 years ago or yesterday it still has thee appearance of being cleaned of which does not go away totally. With your coins damage you will not get MS65 prices you will get what someone is willing to pay for it F grade $15-25. No one is is disputing that this coin is 137 old. Not many collectors want a cleaned coin or a damaged coin. Argentina coin collectors might want this coin until a better coin comes along. I understand your enthusiasm for this coin, but you need to see this coin for what it is...cleaned and damaged..... not "I am gonna get $150-200" for it. Sorry the truth hurts sometimes.
