Any idea what the spot on the wing is? Can anything be done about it? How does that affect the grade?
I'm new to all of this, thanks for your patience.

Tough call. I'll say strong 63, shot 64.

I have sent in a few 1888-O's. This looks like it would come back at MS-63 with a shot at 64.

Carbon spot is what is on the wing. Professional conservation might remove it.

I think it has a solid shot at 64 with or without the carbon spot.

MS-65, nice clean face, the spot on the reverse appears to be just a little toning
