[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 7237888, member: 101855"]To make any AU grade from 50 to 58, you need to have mint luster. I don’t see any mint luster on this piece. Even if you succeed in lifting the dark areas, and I am not sure if they are the result of the same problem, you will have brighter spots in their place, which almost as distracting. I hope that you paid a price that is somewhere in the Choice VF to low end EF range.
