Well I don't think it's rust, it just looks like it because of the color. What I have always called it is the beginning stages of copper...
And you can have it, you just have to buy the specific books for each individual series.
There is no doubt of that, strike is absolutely the least important criteria used to judge the grade of a coin. Even reading any of the grading...
Mel Fischer proiducts are typically priced at double, or more, of what they are actually worth. You, never, ever, want to buy one of those.
Are you saying the rust is developing on the coins in the slab ?
You guys wanna learn to cherrypick ? Forget about variety this and error that - focus on the coin itself instead. The easiest place to do this...

spock it seems you are making an assumption when you say - "but we have not looked into how a 2008 P coin itself can be different if the dies...
