This is a very attractive 2 1/4 centuries of beautiful luster and well struck potential. The holder says cleaned but even that is almost an exaggeration because of the nice original luster and well preserved surfaces on this 228 year old coin. In my opinion it was cleaned at some point in its history, but The cleaning is very light, looking much like it was only lightly wiped. A great put away item or gift for the numismatist in your life. Always honoring combined shipping and the eBay return policy.
