That certainly was damaged by the environment
That was my guess because it looked a little darker than the grading companies usually allow for a straight grade. Anacs called it corroded and...
Anacs was lower than all of us expected; that's still a solid coin (one I would have been happy to find when I was doing my type set album of...
Nice piece to complete the set!

Losing by one increment (or less on a venue like eBay where it can be as low as one cent) is certainly frustrating. I’ve seen my fair share of...
It can be a bit frustrating getting the QC when sending a coin in yourself but when buying it already in the holder, it can be a good opportunity...
Wild guess of AU 58 based on some of the others (and with the caveat that these are very hard to grade without having any experience with the coins).
