Are these black spots on my recently acquired 1934 Peace dollar a form of toning or something else?

Sorry I didn't say the grade of the large cent. It may eventually go to guess the price... and giving a grade would help determine price.


And here's my new 7070 pickup:

I don't know why it looks like there is a huge scratch above the head, it's not really on the coin.

Had some fun at a coin show today. Got a nicer grade Walking Half for my type collection and a shiny little Half Eagle.

Very Nice pick ups everyone

Hey Lex1705, I love the cracks on that 21 D on the previous page 99. As soon as I saw it I thought it looked familiar so I pulled mine.

Here is the sister to yours, what does everyone think? Although I think mine is a little later die state with the progression of the cracks.....
I imagine Lex's 21D and this one were minted very close together.

4 Photos below are of the same 21D, mine, but I highlighted the cracks in red back when I originally photographed it so that I could better ID the location of the cracks.

Enjoy

I was taught carbon spots like this on a bright silver coin typically come from improper dipping, or more precisely improper cleaning of the dip. I am curious to other responses.

The above two are both reeded edge tokens.
I can find only minimal info on the Brown, and nothing on the 'California Counter'. Any help or links appreciated.
