. I see a spot on the lower neck. Is that corrosion?


Yes it is. I put a drop of verdicare on it, but it doesn't want to come off.

Looks great in the album!


Thanks! You know I think he must have just got me really good in the past and felt bad and threw me a bone this time!

Nice coin! Hint of a finger print in the vicinity of the date?


Yes, but I don't think it's too distracting.

I picked this one up a little while back for $2. It has a good look to it except for the spot right above the ribbon.

Photos are what they are, I've got an old phone and it's about as good as it gets with it. I appreciate all the feedback.

It was listed as uncirculated, but I didn't think it was that, nor did I buy it for that reason. I thought it was AU due to the wear on the shield and the various dings.

I appreciate the feedback. These are seller pics by the way. I agree that something looks odd, but I'm hoping it's just the pics. I've bought from the seller before and the pics have a similar color, but in hand they look fine.
