    Been a while, huh?!

    My laptop broke, but I'm back with an even worse camera than before! Well, I decided to jump in with a recent coin roll find since I was in the area, so here you are! One 1973 Woodie with a retained piece of copper slag right in the face! Too bad these are the best photos Imma have for a little bit.

    I'm working on getting a new cam tho, so don't worry! Soon, you all can see the cool little find I got myself!

    I see the Wood grain pattern on the Obverse.
    Improperly Mised Alloy is the proper terminology for it. Nice find.

    I'm not to sure about a retained copper slag?

    I am currently working on getting a better cam, but I'll crop the photos really fast, and see if that helps.

    Agree it looks like a minor "woody". The spot looks like staining/corrosion/environmental damage, not an inclusion.

    Perhaps. It looks a lot better in person though. I'll have to save my opinion until it I have a chance to get my scope up.

    I too see the slight left to right woody. Better pic's on the other would help.
