I like wholesome unleaned circulated gold, but I'm not so sure this one qualifies. The pattern of wear leads me to believe that the loss of rim detail may be the result of more than just wear.

Freakin COOL!
I love worn gold, and I love unusual coins. This ticks both boxes easily. Great coin!
Is that a weak C? I think I see something under the arrow.
"You can't get just one gun." "You can't get just one tattoo." "You can't get just one 1796 Draped Bust Large Cent."
That's cool actually! Has a similar color to my recent Dahlonega piece.

Dirty gold, clean gold, old gold, new gold, I love it. She's beautiful in her own way.
Gold is good. Looks well used, 5-11, expensive door stop?
Good dirty gold is good gold any day
Omegaraptor--I had to do a double check on that "C " It's a worn "D" I would gladly take a weak "C"

I see worn gold. Not sure I would consider it dirty. Sorry! Still a neat coin.
way cool ppc, I like it
Nice. I had an 1836 $2.5 that look almost the same.
Perhaps there is a new wave to collect those coins that have served their intended purpose. Not sure enough thought has been given to this concept
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
Holy cow. Welcome back!
Thanks to bonus bucks another one will be on the way this week

I’d say this one qualifies as pretty dirty:
He's gold and She's beautiful.
