AU-50, likely details due to environmental damage or scratches. The light green hue on both the obverse and reverse that hugs the depths of the devices could be a good sign of minor porosity or corrosion.

Hi jacrispies,
re the green area: If it is corrosion, is there something I should do to prevent it from getting worse?

Give it an acetone dip in case it is surface level. If it is corrosion, it should be left as-is and won't spread quickly if at all.

Thanks everyone! I will have to educate myself on acetone bath. I'll first search the forum for some info.
Have a great day!

IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
