[QUOTE="lkeigwin, post: 1273803, member: 30400"]I think you are over analyzing it. The spot you're referring to is simply more of the same throughout the coin. The IHC is old. There is some verdigris. It's no longer active and not a worry (that it will get much worse). This is the territory of old copper. It really isn't a bad example at all. I don't know what price you're working. But for what it is, I think it is fine. Key dates like this are low-risk, IMO. It's 140 years old and not like more are going to spring up suddenly. I like it. And I'll say this: while you are on the fence someone else with more determination will come along and snatch it from you. And you will look back and say "Damn...I wish I'd bought that".
