<p>[QUOTE=&quot;princeofwaldo, post: 1779355, member: 24091&quot;]The rim is the only area that you can see it without magnification.&nbsp; It&#039;s green, which immediately suggests PVC, yet upon closer examination it does not look pasty like the typical PVC goo that one normally encounters.&nbsp;&nbsp; It&#039;s almost translucent, and since the planchet is a rather unusual 0.800 fine silver, who knows, maybe it&#039;s just natural discoloration.&nbsp; And I suppose that&#039;s part of the charm of collecting non-modern ultra high grade coins, there&#039;s always some room to say, hey, it&#039;s nicer than 99% of the other coins out there of the issue, even if it isn&#039;t perfect.&nbsp; The obverse has some areas of almost copper discoloration, though if that were the case on the reverse and it was green from copper oxide, you would expect the coin to have a more toned overall appearance, and not white like it is.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]284536[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
