<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KSorbo, post: 1905613, member: 56370&quot;]I just picked up an 1863 copper nickel Indian cent graded MS62 by NGC.&nbsp; It has surprisingly clean surfaces for a 62 and is dripping with luster and eye appeal.&nbsp; However, the rim is another story, as it has black crusty spots of what looks like corrosion that may be eating a bit in the .&nbsp; It is not blatantly obvious without magnification but it is definitely there as can be seen in the attached photos.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Do TPG&#039;s typically certify coins problem free with this type of spotting?&nbsp; It occurred to me that the corrosion could have been cleaned off prior to being sent to NGC and could have come back after slabbing.&nbsp; If this is something that would normally pass muster as is than I am okay with it; I just want to make sure I don&#039;t have a problem coin on my hands that got that way post slabbing.&nbsp; I wonder if TPG&#039;s are more lenient with corrosion on the edge versus on the surface.&nbsp; Since the coin has such great eye appeal otherwise, perhaps it was graded down due to the spots. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]326103[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]326104[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]326105[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
