<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GerardV, post: 2840184, member: 76329&quot;]<font size="5">I really like this coin, but the discoloration at 12 o&#039;clock on the reverse has me concerned. Mostly because I&#039;m not 100% whether it&#039;s a minor or major issue. So, yet again, the Newbie needs a hand. Can anyone tell me if it&#039;s something to worry about? It&#039;s not an expensive coin, so I&#039;m not expecting perfection. That mark happens to be something I&#039;m not farmilar with. My concern is whether it&#039;s something that will spread and mess up the rest of the coin. I&#039;ve heard that can happen with AE coins.</font></p><p><font size="5"><br /></font></p><p><font size="5">Any help is appreciated.</font></p><p><font size="5"><br /></font></p><p><font size="5"><br /></font></p><p><font size="5"><br /></font></p><p><font size="5"><b>Valentinian I &quot;GLORIA ROMANORVM Dragging Captive&quot; Siscia RIC 5a gVF Well Struck</b></font></p><p><br /></p><p>Valentinian I AE3.
