Same with counterstamped coins, they slab some of them, but I've been refused on others when all I've wanted was the coin in a genuine holder marked damage or whatever. Seems pretty inconsistent on what they will and won't do.

<< <i>I'm glad to hear from other "acid treaters" as well as myself. I found two 1913s Typ.2's and one 1913d Typ.2,no 18/7 though. That would be cool! >>
it's something to do when there's nothing else to do, and this batch was well worth it
thanks for that pic... now we know

<< <i>Someone enlighten me. Why are buffalo nickels acid treated? >>
note: Sometimes the date area doesn't need the acid! If one can tell if it's a Typ.1 or Typ.2 ( by the mound on the reverse) you just have to acid treat the mint mark,whether it's a "s or d". If your really lucky,you don't even have to use any acid at all,by checking the reverse for the Typ.1 or 2. and the O.P. is right,it really is fun going through to past the time,and very inexpensive also.

The 1916/16 can be identified without the date because it's a DDO and you can see doubling in the Indian's feathers in even low grade examples.

Very nice,braddick! What would you say the price would be for your slab?(about?)

I'm not the guy to ask when it comes to worth on these.
