[QUOTE="Speedy, post: 170845, member: 705"]Zane The reason I wanted your thoughts on the 42/1 is because they marked it cleaned---in person you don't see it untill you really sit there with a 10x and look really close---me and the dealer both missed it the first time looking at it. The cleaning is an old on---at least older than 30 years---because the owner before me had the set for over 30 years and knew better than to clean it. I also agree that its a VF coin but I would think that maybe NGC or PCGS would slab it---its retoned and the only thing pointing to cleaning is the hairlines---I'm thinking that NGC might slab it as a cross over to one of their slabs and market grade it F. I wanted it anyway---most of the time I won't collect cleaned coins but when it gets this rare and when the price was what it was I knew I wanted it. Heck I could crack it out and put it in my set like the last owner did. Most of the time I would agree---but on some coins I would most strongly disagree--such as a 1913 V Nickel---or such thing as a 1909-S VDB. Some coins as long as you like them and as long as the cleaning isn't that bad can be had for a lower price and be a keeper for along time! Speedy[/QUOTE]
