    Yeah, if definitely looks like it. Glad I didn't pay anything for it (thank you, metal detector)

    Seriously? Are you saying that you dug that coin?

    Yep. That's what I did. Too bad I'm not a big Morgan guy, hah. For the record, I did give this coin a little acetone bath (it was covered in dirt) but I didn't do anything else. It looked really pale after I got the dirt off.

    Thanks! Nah, you didn't miss it- I didn't really mentioned that I dug it up. I was more curious what grade people would give it. If it's cleaned, does it mean that it has no grade at all beside "cleaned"?

    The cleaning looks harsh, but the coin has managed to re-develop a pleasing patina. Give it another 100 years and maybe a TPG will call the surfaces "market acceptable"... image

    Wish I could find something like that. All I find is rusty nails, brickbats and marbles (and not the valuable kind).
    Let's try not to get upset.
