<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Leadfoot, post: 368672, member: 2972&quot;]The red is a type of corrosion.&nbsp; Very common on old copper.&nbsp; The coin is one of the Randall Hoard varieties.&nbsp; The look is very typical of that hoard, and I suspect this coin is from it. Furthermore, I suspect the coin is MS as stated (and as per TPG standards and likely AU/XF as per EAC standards) and the toning/photograph are leading some to think otherwise.&nbsp; Respectfully submitted as my opinion, and recognizing the opinions of others may vary and are just as valid...Mike[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
