Opinion on a 2 cent piece

[diggummup]

The sheaths of wheat, the bow, the WE, the lines on the shield are all sharp- this coins IS for certain at least XF, it may grade AU. NICE- I wouldn't put that in a necklace if you paid me.. oils from the skin will get on it.. scratches... man, I would be more than content to put it in my coin collection.

Thank you,I was looking at the same things you were,just didn't want to go for AU unless I could actually see it in person.After Skrimpy said the discolored marks are just dirt,I was thinking along the same lines.
Skrimpy-I believe it is about $20.00 to get a coin graded and slabbed.I could be wrong,i've never found a coin good enough to get slabbed.That alone would add some value to it though.

How about getting the rest of the dirt off? I don't want to rub it and it's already soaked in olive oil for about two weeks now...
