My expert at my LCS confirmed it's gold. He said submit it, he agreed that it's in mint state. The plot thickens!
Possibly but the heat would have to have been very localized and controlled since the reverse and periphery are not affected. I've experimented...
Nothing more than artifacts of die wear. You guys are reading too far into this. If you believe I'm wrong, consult elsewhere for confirmation....
Simple, they all use dies to mint millions of coins. All the dies wear, they don't care what city they're in. Any "blobs" you're seeing are...
No error, just stained or toned in that area. I would hit it with water and see if it comes off. It looks like an AU coin so no telling where it's...
Did that happen to be part of "Ray's Hoard" from our very own CT? He found a miracle roll and sold them to other members - I own 2 of them. The...

Let me guess for PCGS, "questionable color"....nope just detailed for cleaning, the reverse is a bit sus. The "outline" around the portrait is...
I can spot those from a 100 yards! No need to even see the reverse. These all have the "Chinese patina".
ANACS called my no-D a "weak D"! It was a free grade and I didn't realize they suck too on labeling TRUE no-D coins as "weak". [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Also, keep in mind, the TPGs (except NGC I believe) call no-D DP's 1, 3, & 4 "weak D". They SUCK for doing so as the other die pairs are as legit...
Separate names with a comma.
