Looks like green crud on the coin, and on the grid mat underneath--just a coincidence, or do the coin and the mat have the same crud? Excellent BIE, until the green crud mystery is explored, it's difficult to say woody.

. I do not see that as a woody, some kind of "stuff' "on" the coin. Nice BIE.

Not seeing a woody either. But a BIE? Yes, a good one!

Water and copper are two things that are not nice for a combo to happen to a copper planchet. The water issue, turns the color green.
Rest in Peace

Far from woody coins. It is a coin which stay on the wet surface.
