I am thinking about buying this coin. The price is right for the grade -- $16.15 and free shipping. I am, however, bothered by the apparent discoloration/toning. I don't know if it's the coin, or the holder and PCGS does not have images of this coin.

I firmly believe in buying the coin, not the holder. In fact if I buy this coin, I will crack it out and put it in my CAPS album. Please help me make a decision on this coin. Do you think it is the holder or the coin that is causing the blotchy appearance?

Well now you know why it's only $16.15 - bad eye appeal. You can get a pristine 1946-D PCGS MS66 for around $20. I would spend the extra $4 and be happy with the coin

Looks much better than MS-66 to Me. I would buy that in a heart beat.

Personally I don't understand Mark1959 says it has bad eye appeal, but to each their own .

That's a real nice 66 IMO. What you're seeing could be on the slab. If it's on the coin, it appears to be very light verdigris layer. I've removed that type of verdigris in under 5 seconds with VC, it comes right off.

I have a small supply of VC left. I've heard it's hard to come by lately BT.Do you have the inside scoop on who sells it?
