Description

1853-O XF 45 Cleaned. Occasionally, U.S. gold coins display dark brown encrustations around some of the lettering and devices. The encrustation comes from a variety of sources, e.g., having been buried, from chemical reactions in salt water, etc. This is just such a coin, but the encrustations are few. Nevertheless, an attempt has been made in the past to physically remove the encrustations, hence the "cleaned" designation. The attempt at cleaning the coin was mild, and few traces remain.
