Bam! Look at this beauty. I thought she was toast so I decided to give the HP q-tip rolling technique a try just hoping for a FE confirmation and possibly a date. I can’t believe how much crud came off of this coin with every roll of the q-tip just a little more detail(: Coin cleaning has always been a challenge for me that I’m still learning and I try keep my expectations low but this one really surprised me. Thanks for the look.
