<p>[QUOTE="C-B-D, post: 3222121, member: 43130"]I'm here. The only thing I could see was that the coin was "tidied up," which is no big deal. I do it all the time. What I mean is that someone took the time to acetone it and take a thorn or toothpick to remove dirt from around the devices. A coin this old should be a little grimy, but this one is super "clean." I graded it VF25. The graders saw something to give them pause. Sometimes it's just a feeling and they have to err on the side of caution. On another day, the coin may get a pass.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
