Sap Moderator Australia 16832 Posts	Posted 12/14/2022 7:23 pm I'm not aware of a "mint error" that can make a coin look like that, so I would assume it's post-mint damage. I can't tell if the "dots" are corrosion pits, or just stains. They look more like corrosion pits to me.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/15/2022 11:32 am Could be sneeze droplets, or left over fingerprint marks on the coin. Not a desirable coin as they were often spent as quarters, when they are really dollars. (reeds on the edge added to the confusion. Thus the replacement dollars were a different color and non reed edges. Just a spender. Report this Post to the Staff
