[QUOTE="jeankay, post: 346992, member: 12159"]That is pretty darn cool. On the first picture I was thinking my glasses need adjustment. The spots might be quite distracting... but the point is, you liked the coin and wanted to add it to your collection. However, on the spots near Lincolns nose, on his face and jacket, I see something that really bothers me. I have seen these nearly perfect round bullseye spots on other coins, and I know that it can be trouble for the coin. In my experience I have seen this type of spot grow and cause damage to that coin and also transfer the spot to other coins. I do not know how to stop it from growing. I have dabbed a little rubbing alcohol on the spot with a cotton swab and it seems to delay the growth. With that said, just keep it away from other coins, perhaps in a flip all its own, and enjoy it. When is science going to come up with something that will protect coins in their original state so do not have to worry about them becoming victims of the elements? jeankay[/QUOTE]
