<p>[QUOTE="Boss, post: 522515, member: 15110"]Here we go: I am starting to think this 1915 was lacquered too<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie104" alt=":yawn:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie104" alt=":yawn:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. AJ said something about it looking not original in Post some Lincolns and it has that same glossy look (I included the side view). I am kind of over removing lacquer so I may sell eventually or put in my album and just enjoy as it is awful purty as GD says. Sent this 15 D to NCS secondary to small verdigris on back (cracked out of 64 BN holder) and came back 63 RB with a darker look. In retrospect I should have briefly soaked in mineral oil, used a rose thorn (it was very superficial) and got it all off with xzlene and sent to PCGS as NGC is lame re: RB designations. Has to be practically all RD to get a RD in my experience. Lesson learned. I still like both coins. Small spot by Lincolns head on 15 D is on the holder (I didn't clean well before pic) and all the verdigris on the 15 is virtually gone now with rose thorn and mineral oil.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
