[QUOTE="bsowa1029, post: 3444655, member: 34652"][ATTACH=full]914624[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]914625[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]914626[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]914627[/ATTACH] I recently purchased this coin from a local B&M. I realize there is some verdigris on the surfaces. When buying I didn’t think it was so bad that the coin couldn’t be saved. Although, I wouldn’t actually know since I’ve never dealt with a coin that had verdigris. I’m the last, I’ve done some minor searching on eBay for 2 cent pieces, and compared to what I’ve seen I thought the remaining detail on this coin was great. As a bonus there’s an approximate 25 degree die rotation. What I’m mostly curious of is whether the coin has obvious signs of cleaning that my untrained eye isn’t detecting and is it likely that the verdigris can be removed without there being any serious issues left? Lastly, was $45 a decent price for the piece? The dealer gave me a plastic tube for halves at no extra cost.[/QUOTE]
