I tend to think the light area across the top of the coin is more of a improper alloy mix. I am quite sure the dark spots are actually cruddy dirt stuff and not carbon corrosion. </p><p><br /></p><p>I will get back to everyone with better pictures when I am able.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks again,</p><p>jeankay </p><p><br /></p><p>(I was hoping for an XF on this because my wheat collection before 1934 is primarily XF-AU brown).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
