I found a link: http://forum2.ikegroup.info/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=1466 Someone in that thread claims it "looked MS67 at best." But, I agree with...

It might not be financially worthwhile, but as an educational experience, why not?
I'm going with environmental damage of some sort. @ldhair may be right about it being a dug coin.
Super weak strike, to the point where had you not suggested it's MS, I'd probably have said AU. No minus points for the "carbon spots." Hard to...
