<p>[QUOTE="Stewey99, post: 4861031, member: 100950"]Still playing with my new microscope. I bought this coin at an estate auction, thought it looked neat. After studying it, it looks like it have a die crack on the edge of the six. I've seen some stuff online that suggests this could be a CSA variety? The other thing about this coin is the oily sheen on it - someone much smarter than me said its an altered surface and was colored or otherwise treated. I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas from my pictures. If it is a CSA die crack is it possibly a fake? thanks</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1173957[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1173958[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1173959[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
