<p>[QUOTE="frostyluster, post: 1654028, member: 41979"]Corrosion is a strong, strong word in the coin world. It refers to deep toning/excessive pitting deeper than the surface that cannot be removed safely/completely. Mint state refers to a coin without wear, excessive/very large/long marks, and corrosion. I don't see why some people think that (not meat as 74teen) tarnish is unattractive. I'd rather have a deeply toned MS-63 than a overdipped white MS66 in an NGC holder.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
