[QUOTE="charley, post: 7897557, member: 5372"]FTR, I was being serious. I have used the description for 40 years.

I have always been a fan. I guess I am getting old. Along the years, I have seen the pattern described as blotchy or speckled, but I never thought these descriptions do a mottled rust colored coin justice. A lot of 21D Morgans have this.
