[QUOTE="iPen, post: 2729052, member: 69760"]I took some more photos of this coin using natural daylight instead of the artificial intense lighting setup that I've been using lately. Though, my camera cast some large shadows on the coin so it appears duller than it appears in the photos. As shown in the first post, the coin has beaming cartwheel luster and strong mirroring. However, should I be concerned about this spot on the obverse to the left of Isabella's chin? It looks to be hazy and some of it is shown throughout the coin. The second pic below shows this non-circular spot best. Does anyone know what that is? I'm concerned that it'll cause a Details grade. Or maybe I'm overthinking it. Thanks in advance!
