In my opinion, leave it slabbed. I do not think you will gain anything by cracking it out. Spots will still be there with better pics. I was going to suggest you use NGC pics but yours are better.  Must have something to do with the level it was slabbed at. LINK https://www.NGCcoin.com/certlookup/3682801-004/62/

They appear as carbon spots on the reverse. So there is nothing to do to help these. They have a mind of their own. Best to not buy coins that start to have these appear on them.

So Coop, likely won't sell? I wasn't expecting much but was hoping for a couple bucks.

Someone will buy it, but don't keep your hopes up for much money. I'd value it at less than $10.  to the CCF!

I don't think you should mention black spots in your listing . Any buyer who doesn't look at least 3 times at the obverse and reverse of the coin they want to buy is not much of a collector . Let them decide for themselves if the coin is right for them .

Someone already paid $50 to have it slabbed, no reason to take it out - especially at that grade. It's probably a $10 coin.

agree with tbop. just list it with a minimal description, preferably as a buy-it-now if you aren't in a hurry to sell it

Best leave as is and sell it if you don't want it.

the black carbon spots inflict copper coins quite regularly just as you get zinc bubbles and zinc rot from 1982 and newer Lincoln cents.. Nothing can be done with them.
