I posted this coin almost two years ago and said that I would post new pictures when I got a new camera. I got a new camera last year sometime, but had completely forgot about the thread so I never posted new pictures.
This coin really looks MS to me. The dark area around the rim is actually a very dark blue toning (Which can be seen in some of the pictures)
Here are my original scans of the coin. (They show the detail a bit better)
Here are the new pictures I took a lot to try and capture the luster, and toning on the coin.
Oh, I never noticed that. I never actually touched the face of the coin with my hands, I was holding the rim and the angle, made it look like my thumb is on the coins.
