<p>[QUOTE="Publius2, post: 4270019, member: 105571"]The somewhat heavy scratches on the obverse (at K8, K10 and K2) would put the coin on the bubble if that was the only thing on a coin with otherwise original surfaces. However, this coin has been rather harshly cleaned with the evidence showing on both obverse and reverse. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I have a 1844 half that I got cheap that is also the recipient of a prior owner's tender attentions. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1087243[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1087244[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
