It sure looks NT to me and yes I have seen coins with similar toning patterns. And even with the TPGs are being so picky about toning these days...
Personally I'd forget about it. Kinda curious though why you'd pay such a premium. $8 a coin premium seems a bit much.
If you have the Krause it should list the silver content. If you don't, you can look it up on Numismaster.
If you believe that silver, once it turns black will not corrode, then I would suggest you re-examine your beliefs for there is far too much...
While I understand what you are saying I feel there is a simple explanation. The coin was titled in the album. In other words the left obv was...
The '86 is the nicest coin if the lot, prob a 65. But unless it is a special VAM even that is not worth having it graded. edit - forgot to add...
One thing for sure - you have a very limited time when the print is even capable of being removed - and I means days. The longer you wait, the...
As for #2, that's probably exactly what it is. #1 - you say "near" the D. If the coin is an over mint mark it will not be near, it will be under...
It's reported in many books that there are more fake $1 gold coins than there are real ones - it's the most commonly counterfeited coin there is....

You should be fine as long as you hold the can fully upright and get no liquid out of the can. Tilt the can and you're gonna get liquid more times...
It was worth a 100 times that in advertising for the guy ! When somebody does it and nobody knows who it was that did it - THAT is worth...
Because no such thing as + existed when that coin was slabbed. BTW - krypto still paid more than I would have even if there had been good images.
