[QUOTE="10gary22, post: 1021628, member: 23626"]Guys, I found one of the 1987 P Roosevelt Dimes that has the extra very faint P next to the hair line at Roosevelt's neck. I matched it up to the pics in the CherryPickers' Guide and am nearly certain that's what it is. However this is a stained and dirty coin. To see the error, I need to tilt it to the light. Even then it's pretty weak. I don't care if I "ruin" it by cleaning, because the condition is not very good, but I would like to bring it out some before putting it in the flip. I don't think these are very valuable, but would keep it until and if I find another better one. I never bothered with cleaning any clad coins except for acetone baths for dirty LMC's. So what's the best way to do it ? Thanks, gary[/QUOTE]
