Ah, the infamous "struck on hubcap" error! I saw some of those at the show yesterday. They're among the easier errors to spot.
Hmm. Most of the photo-adjusting tools I've used have an adjustment tool that lets you set a black level -- in other words, anything darker than...
Is there something going on with the rim on both sides, or am I just misreading the photo?

If you're ever in central NC, look up Josh Bobbitt. Example: he's going through a stack of Morgans I'm selling to him, naming buy prices. "$27....
