I recently got this coin, but the toning is a bit darker than I would like. I am thinking about reversing the toning process a little to brighten...
MS-63
I bought this as a VF details for $50. In hand, it looks EF/AU. I may use a darkener to mute the shinyness of the areas affected by whatever...
PO-01

This is definitely not a proof. Look how weakly struck the left ear of corn is.
Think about it. What part of the minting process could produce such a defect? If you can't think of one, then it is PMD.
