<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 944987, member: 66"]When you actually see these "shipwreck effect" coins in hand you see the surfaces show evidence of corrosion, acid etching cleaning, and all of the ones I have seen are covered with hairlines from what appears to be a wirebrushing. Yes they are high detail and I do believe they are worth having for their historical value and context, but not at $750 to $1000 apiece. If these WEREN'T from the USS Republic, coins of this detail with the handling they have had would be $50 to $100 coins at best.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
