Each page of the old album it was housed in was separated by a green paper page. Seems to have leached through to the coin. Tried a dip in eucalyptus oil with another coin (not this one) from the album and it was removed in seconds. Put it in a 2x2 for him until he decides what action to take.!
I love the obverse. I cant decide if I prefer it to the one used on most Australian KGV coins. My only criticism is it may look a bit cartoon like. Some days I prefer it, other days I dont.

Lucky! I thought it verdigris ruining what was otherwise a nice coin.
Not sure about the grade but I'd say EF at least.
