[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 3411715, member: 101855"]My sharpness grade would be VF-35. Unfortunately the "green crud" is bad news. It's PVC, and it can damage the coin. It still amazes me that people send in coins with this stuff on them. Removing it is not that hard. It also amazes me that the grading services put the coins in holders with this stuff on them.

The only solution now is to live with it, send to PCGS to have them fix and re-slab it if it can be graded or crack it yourself and fix it.[/QUOTE]
