    This is one of my raw 42 p's which I believe to be a pretty nice MS-?? dime, but there is an area over Adolf's initials that appears to be upset, it isn't though, but almost any way I look at it(Except for looking across it on a level surface) it looks like it has a rise. Any ideas, funky toning?

    Looks to me like it's just the remains of some heavy black toning that did not come off when the coin was dipped.

    Thank you. It's to bad about the black toning, it's otherwise beautiful in hand.
