Spence Moderator United States 34393 Posts	Posted 09/02/2021 9:00 pm @seap that looks more like corrosion than a lam to me, but I'm interested to see what others think.

Dearborn Moderator United States 94666 Posts	Posted 09/03/2021 5:25 pm My first thought was that it is not a lam error (second also). A caustic substance probably cause this, Some have indicated that it may be a fake, but I have no idea why someone would make a damaged one Collecting since 1972.
