Had a nice hunt yesterday and found this merc and a walking half. The half was fine, but this merc was toasted (look at picture). Cleaned it up with baking soda, and yes I know I probably degraded the value of this by cleaning it, but it's not all about the money.

You have lots of detail there for a 1927 coin.

The hair and wing on Lady Liberty's profile profile typically gets worn down and it looks like it's all there.

Mercs are one of my favorite coins. I just like the overall design and of course, silver makes it all the better.
