    I don't see any wood. LOL

    Crack it out of the crap holder and let it sit out for a few months in air. :D

    They got from 10:30 to 4:30 on the obverse and 1:30 to 7:30 on the reverse. The reverse is most obvious.

    I might break it out, but I think I will try the window sill first.

    not sure, but i think the diagonal stripes on the reverse of the coin are wood.
    What do you think?

    Yep! And if you look closely, you can see the lines on the obverse also.

    I got this in the mail today. Love the pattern, but it has a couple problems. Now I get to figure whether I want to keep this one or my previous (basically problem free, but not as nice a pattern).

    NICE!!!!

    Put one drop of VC on that area and work it a little with a toothpick. Looks like it will come right off to me. That coin is too nice not to save!

    Been there. Done that. No help. But that is not the only problem. Your Verdi-care won't help the reverse any.
