Around the edges on the obverse there is "faint" luster remaining and 2/3 of the fields on the reverse has some "faint" luster remaining. Overall I would describe the luster as a "dull satiny finish". The coin is from the Philadelphia mint if that matters..and to be exact the coin is a Barber Quater 1896.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
