    The color looks wrong, but that may just be the pics.

    Tough to tell fom the pic, but it certainly has wear.

    I like to ask ebay sellers "How was the coin cleaned?" You would be surprized at the answers you get.

    If not cleaned, then dipped to death.

    Give it another 20 years or 20 weeks in a Taco Bell napkin.

    I can't say for certain that it has never been cleaned, but there is a lot of wear and no dirt. Seems a little bright.

    Harshly cleaned. Body bag---not that anyone would bother to try to get it slabbed.

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.
