[QUOTE="7Jags, post: 21726266, member: 78719"]OK, I was bored the other night and was looking for an upgrade to my 1970 D JFK half dollar and so was scrolling through eBay. I noticed that most of the TPG graded MS65 pieces looked pretty bad and with prices ranging up to over $100. Graded MS66 which looked alright were $600+ which I was NOT going to pay (who buys such coins anyway?). So I looked through the raw ones and found this one at $20, and looked to be poorly dipped (but not over dipped) with residues and some yellow green color. Well I bought it and it just arrived. so I took a couple pics in the raw and then used my ammo is tricks (I have posted these elsewhere). So here is before: [ATTACH=full]1543413[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1543414[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1543415[/ATTACH] And here is after (sorry about iPhone pictures): [ATTACH=full]1543418[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1543419[/ATTACH] I like the coin at this price point, but thought I’d share it.[/QUOTE]
