MS-60BN, looks like some corrosion starting so best to give it an Acetone bath soon. Followed by Verdicare.

Looks clean - but not necessarily cleaned - in terms of circulation marks, but it looks very washed out. Is it the lighting and what color would you call it?

Also, is it in a flip, because there doesn't seem to be much relief across the devices. This could be due to a very bad strike or some other reason. For example, the VDB is barely discernible in the picture, and a little off center.

I guess I have more questions than answers. This leads me to an ambiguous WAG of MS-60(ish).

Is that the actual color?

MS-63

The corrosion should be addressed before it progresses. It looks to pretty light now.

It is not the lighting that makes it look washed out - that's the way it is. Color? it is a bit more lustrous than the picture but the corrosion by the last "S" in "States" on the reverse is more noticeable.

It is not in a flip. I pulled it out of my Whitman 9405 album to take the picture.

I'll stick with 62BN - don't see any "R" here.
