[QUOTE="mrbrklyn, post: 102864, member: 4381"]I'm not sure what the details of a polished coin looks like, especially a Barbra half. A Morgan, which I'm more familiar with, I could make a more educated opinion. But the coin does shine, without being mirror like. to my amature eye, it doesn't look like my Sivler candleabra and cups when they are shined and polished. It has no indication of being whized. And I think my photo is a good representation, minus the slight off focus due to the coins angle to the camera, of what it looks like in hand. To see this coin in person after talking to Speedy about it is why i brought this coin ;) In terms of being polished, it not like one of my ASEs :) (Yes - I'm aware that one would be polishing the coin the other the dies) In the hand it seems to have some origianl luster in the flat parts of the obverse's fields. I'll see if I can photo it better tomorrow morning. I'm off to work now. Chow! Ruben Ruben[/QUOTE]
