I expected to see more pics also. Guessing the cleaning process is taking a while. I hope to have mine ready to post soon.

I'm mostly curious about condition. From the pics in the sale post it looked like the SDs might be a little less worn that the LE $5s. Hoping that is the case. I may have to get my wife to open up my box and take a few pics for me.

Those edges look pretty good. Do you think you can clean them up?

Interested in buying barrels of $2’s , $3’s or milled/ undenominated from EU sellers if any spares.

Thanks

Soot $1’s clean up pretty well also.

It's a sick chip for sure.

Interesting to note the different styles.

Two different shaped inlay sizes. The smaller obviously much better looking. Here's a couple pictures of the two sizes:

And then there's this one (which I luckily didn't get many of, lol)

Looks like all of these have multiple inlay sizes. Here are the $5 hub shaped inlays in two sizes as well:

It is remarkable how well those cleaned up. And now.....envy.

Me too.....but then I see some of the non soot covered SD's. Seems like a toss up. I would have probably got the non soot covered SD's.

More soot!

If people are like myself, waiting to finish acquisition, trading, sorting, frac labels, and then maintenance.

Process pron (if that's a thing):

My set is a month or two off from being up to "presentable" standards.

Here is the post I saw earlier for someone selling. I don't think that these were soot covered, but not sure.

Currently doing a set for a customer with the same battle. They clean up nicely tho.
