<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kirkuleez, post: 2384943, member: 36864&quot;]I&#039;m not aware of any coin besides Zincoln cents (or any metal for that matter besides steel) that corrodes outwardly to show a raised surface. I would suspect that the reason that it is slightly darker is because the surface has a slightly different surface texture because it was not fully struck in that section as a result of the void in the die. I will try to get an image of the area so that you can see it better but my photograph skills really suck. It is quite clearly not corrosion through a loupe though. This is more usual example of surface corrosion; notice how it ate away at the coin, not caused the surface to raise. [ATTACH=full]489243[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
