BudLattes New Member United States 37 Posts	Posted 01/04/2021 8:36 pm I'm a novice collector and by no means an expert, but I believe what you are seeing is face Pareidolia. Which pretty much means that you can see a face in the staining and patina. Like seeing objects in clouds or random patterns. Report this Post to the Staff
