To acid treat the 1913, or not???

[conleytheking]

I found this yesterday, its a 1913, by design....but there isn't a date or mint mark...
So...should I acid treat it? or is it worth more like it is, due to the design?
Any input would be helpful.

Really no reason -since they only made that variety in 1913 - Argentium.

The only thing you'll get out of it is knowing the mint mark. With that said, if you acid treat it you'll ruin it and make it worth about a dollar...if you leave it untreated, based on the mount, people know it is a circulated 1913 Type 1. I would not put anything on it if I were you...

Thanks for the input. I guess I'll leave it alone. I wasnt sure if it had any value in this condition.

Like others said, do not acid treat THAT coin. You already know the date and it is worth more in the condition it's in.
