I'm past 2500 posts so it's time for another givaway. 
I'll make it simple.
I have had a coin in mineral oil, just guess how long it has been soaking (# of days) and the member closest to the correct answer that's over the actual number will be the winner!
YES it's a problem coin, anyone that disses my coin or giveaway will be right out of the running.
Here are images that I took before the mineral oil bath, I will post the "after" images of the reverse tomorrow.
The good.......
the bad........
and the "after" (Meh, looks like I waisted my time
)........
Good luck and thanks for all the knowledge.

PS The "giveaway" will end on .............. 9/11/2010 at 6PM C.S.T. any guesses after this time will be not included.
Good luck once again!

Congrat's on the 2500+ milestone. That's a nice looking Cent there ...
What do you think caused the spotting on the reverse? I haven't inspected anything like that before.
Oh, yeah ... I'll guess you put it in 4 Saturdays ago ... so 28 days is my guess.

Many members on this forum that now it cannot fit in my signature. Please ask for entire list.
And it looks like just a little over two posts per day.
And if by chance I would like to donate it to a YN of your choice.
