Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 12/31/2019 3:12 pm In hand, I don't see anything I'd taker to be corrosion or environmental damage. The one irregularity I do note is that on the reverse the leaf underneath the "0" in the date doesn't seem to be fully struck up, so instead of a crisp, concave appearance, it's somewhat mushy and filled in towards the tip.

tamarin Pillar of the Community Canada 576 Posts	Posted 01/01/2020 6:28 pm Not enough red for an MS-62. I feel safe at MS-60. But if you watch ebay listings you'll know criteria for MS are changing and I'm blown away to see some MS-64 Browns. Report this Post to the Staff
Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 01/02/2020 10:51 am Quote: Rev. at 11 o'clock encompassing leaves......corrosion. I can see why it might look to be so based upon the photo, which was taken of the coin in its "as found" state (I hadn't mentioned that it did after all come out of a shop's "cull" bin, and as such set me back a whole 50¢ US). But that appearance can actually be attributed to just some dirt/gunk/grunge deposited there. Below I've posted a later photo of that same area after a brief soak in nothing more than distilled water. Might yet merit additional bath time, but based on the initial results I don't think there's any permanent damage that'd cause the coin to be "details" annotated.
