<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 1459277, member: 5233&quot;]There is no way to remove the hairlines other than wear...which has already been stated.&nbsp; When a coin is cleaned and those hairlines appear...it is because the metal is physically scratched.&nbsp; So, wearing down beyond those scratches is the only way to &quot;fix&quot; it.&nbsp; Of course, I&#039;m sure the scratches also extend deep into the fields which means it will take a lot of circulation wear to remove them.</p><p><br /></p><p>The bottom line is, the coin is damaged and there isn&#039;t much that can be reasonably be done.&nbsp; Fortunately, an 1886 is a common date and in this condition is probably only worth melt.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
