Just won this last night, but I didn't notice the staining (?) on it until today when I checked for items that I had won.

The seller described it as a superb, uncirculated coin.

So what is that then?

It actually says a superb coin in unc condition. I believe that a coin can have "issues" like staining and still be considered unc. The superb coin part of the description is the sellers opinion. I don't want to pass judgment, but it feels to me that you overspent on this one.
