The dark spot is a carbon spot. Pretty much ends the life for this collectable. It is now a problem coin.

@hlw, is your question primarily around the grade or are you seeing an error/variety? I want to make sure that this thread is located in the correct subforum. Thx for providing a little guidance about what exactly your question is.

What do you mean by "lock it up"? This is a common worn coin with environmental damage, worth very little.

Not worth keeping? The coin's 108 years old and found in the wild. It's a keeper to me, no matter what it looks like! &&
