<p>[QUOTE="ten-cents, post: 933227, member: 19568"]For your own good, learn about troubling signs to look for on early copper. The coin you posted on this thread is corroded and has been smoothed to hide the corrosion, possibly in a rock tumbler or some other device. And of course, that means that it is only market acceptable if sold for a fraction of the price of an un-damaged specimen. Do your research, on prices, and on the coin itself, and you will be much better off--I guarantee. You might buy W. Sheldon's "Penny Whimsy" to start. Good luck with that ANACS specimen, their grading is spotty at best IMHO. Please post pics! I love early copper!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
