Bingo. I knew it had a spot, which I assumed was just dirt or a carbon spot. I wansn't concerned since this was for my type collection and I got it at a fair price. I took another photo under magnification to show what appears to be either mint damage or post mint damage, Still happy with the coin. I would not be at all suprised if it had been cleaned some time in it's past. 151 years is a long time. Thanks for all your resonses. Leson learned is to look more closley before buying and don't let emotions carry you away.
