Spence Moderator United States 34563 Posts	Posted 01/10/2026 09:54 am Seems to have been Struck Through Grease, which is kinda neat. I do see some areas of corrosion on the reverse where the zinc core has been exposed to the elements and is in the process of degrading. Keep it if you want until you get your hands on an even more extreme example.
