[QUOTE="Lueds, post: 8065132, member: 109500"]Welcome to the CT family! As stated above, the pitted/mottled look with 'mushy' devices and fields is usually indicative of exposure to an acidic environment. As a result these coins tend to be a little to a Lot underweight. You can help yourself by getting resources or reading up on how coins are minted. This will help you understand what sort of errors can and cannot happen at the mint. The Book of US Coins (a.k.a. Red Book) has lots on information, just don't rely on the pricing as it is not accurate. Coin World Almanac and The Coin Collector's Survival Manual are good helps for you also.[/QUOTE]
