    Nice coin. You could probably get the dirt out of the 9 by carefully poking it with a rose thorn. Was there a "before" picture somewhere?

    Looks a little better now, and the pics show better detail. I'm sticking by my original VF35 (PCGS) XF40 raw/NGC guess, for the details.
    Still guessing it would get a gennie grade or net grade, but a darn fine album coin, and very tough to find with this level of detail.

    I'm still in the VF30 but it might go Genuine because of the surface coloration problems above the T and in front of Liberty's face. I would send it in and be sure to mark the "Genuine with Details" box.

    "Before" pic is in this thread.

    Reverse looks great but I would say 30/35 Details because of the obverse issues it seems to have in the photos.

    I like it more now after the Acetone dip.
    The areas of concern have been discussed
    and will keep the coin out of a graded holder.

    Otherwise, if problem free, I wouldn't be surprised
    to see it in an XF 40 Holder.

    Nice coin, IMHO .

    How long was the dip? Any plans of trying a soak with...I believe, olive oil is what I'm thinking of? Should get the rest of that crud out of the 9 and mint mark?

    I do not see this coin grading- I still see EF details but surfaces are just too impaired which is quite sad

    VF 35 cleaned and should be allowed to settle and re-tone a bit in a envelope or album a while.
