<p>[QUOTE="Mike1487, post: 1930760, member: 56511"]I picked up an album of coins recently for a really good price. The best coins were 1870 and 1872, and these two coins look to be strong XF candidates. Unfortunately they both have a small verdigris spot. Since I've never submitted coins before, I don't have a feel for how much verdigris, if any, is acceptable for a problem free grade.
