<p>[QUOTE="buddy16cat, post: 1498067, member: 37356"]I am not crazy about that coin really and would consider selling it. I like the one below. I don't know why some people say how heavily cleaned it is. You mean someone purposely made this look like a turd? They talk about the absence of dirt somewhere. Couldn't dirt be removed while carrying it in your pocket or just by dipping it in acetone. I know acetone or even soaking in distilled water is considered cleaning and does remove dirt but I don't consider that "heavy cleaning". I just think some people like to throw that term around or that they have the ability to tell what exactly has been done to every coin in existence to stroke their own ego. Of course some may just not be familiar with a series. I know it is harder to find non-cleaned examples with older coins since so many were cleaned. I am sure many coins make it into non-details slabs that have had some sort of cleaning because they didn't detect it. I am going to a PM dealer soon to see if I can get some junk seated, I like them worn and beat-up sold at melt.</p><p>[ATTACH]191616.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH]191617.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
