<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tmoneyeagles, post: 600136, member: 17557&quot;]Well yes, this coin is a VF, going on EF, and has been cleaned at some time</p><p>A lot of busts have been cleaned and dipped, some busts at this grade are more of a silvery color, and most, don&#039;t pass over at grading</p><p>This bust, has retoned, since it&#039;s days of being cleaned, and is a very nice one</p><p>You can see, in some of the higher grade busts, that the coins do have a more silvery color, although it is hard to tell if the coin is original or not. Most bust collectors, may have cleaned or dipped coins in their collection, and honestly, don&#039;t even know it, because they think, that if the coin is in a slab, that means it can&#039;t possibly be cleaned, which is not entirely true. Beware of buying raw busts, over the internet, as it is always better to see, not just busts, but any coin in hand before buying.</p><p>I see that this bust has sold already, well if you picked this up, congrats, it is a nice coin for the money, and I&#039;d be proud of it, if you didn&#039;t then you still did out okay, and there will always be another[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
