    This one was bought with a lot of other coins and was cleaned and white 2 decades ago. I am not sure what they used to " improve it "but the coin was stable after an acetone soak and then distilled water rinse. Took quite a while for it to re-tone. There are gouges on both sides but even they are toning over. Junk Box coin with some color.

    Great colors but a shame about the wear, gouges and cleaning.

    Pretty nice toning for a cleaned coin.

    For a so-called "junk box" coin, it's quite handsome.
