AgCoinAu Pillar of the Community Canada 3049 Posts	Posted 10/24/2013 4:08 pm Pitted eh? is that the verdigris that creates the pitting? Also what makes this EF in your opinion... one reason I was interested in this coin is that it looked uncirculated Report this Post to the Staff
nickelsguy Pillar of the Community Canada 2301 Posts	Posted 10/24/2013 5:30 pm The corrosion on the coin is the green ick It is eating copper in plain language. I would not attempt to grade the coin from the image, I was only meaning that they are not hard to find in better grades. MM Report this Post to the Staff
