<p>[QUOTE="ksparrow, post: 8136720, member: 7638"]I agree that it's a details coin. I don't know about PVC in its various permutations, just the green goo and surface erosion from the acid it produces. The coin does look AU, but I would expect more luster around the obv. stars which leads me to think the fields have been burnished or polished, and I would expect them to be fairly reflective (can't tell from the pictures.) The toning, to me, looks artificial as I just haven't seen those colors or that mossy look on NT coins. Of course I could be wrong![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
