Paddy Posted May 31, 2018 Author Posted May 31, 2018 Well I think I have finished playing with this one now. It has had time in the oven as suggested and also time in the sunshine with a little mineral oil on the surface - this seemed to make more difference than the oven to be fair. I have left a little oil on the surface as it is inclined still to look a bit matt. It will now go away in my collections as my example of 1859 over 8 Half Penny. 3 Quote
Gary1000 Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 Looks good enough to go on ebay, uncirculated very rare variety 1 Quote
Paddy Posted May 31, 2018 Author Posted May 31, 2018 Considering this is what it looked like when I got it, I think it was worth the effort! 3 Quote
