Very little wear on this one. AU-50 with a couple small nics.

Unfortunately, the "blemish" is corrosion, rather than an error. Zinc coins are prone to such corrosion spots. I do not know what the TPGs policy on zinc coins is, in terms of how much corrosion is tolerated before it becomes ungradeable.

Is it the small nics that make it an AU50?
Because I have a similar one graded MS62 couldn't find it better in terms of appeal or details.
