Never seen a Proof Cent like this.. AT?

11 posts in this topic

Looks like either environmental damage or AT...............proofs can do some funny things in those screwdown holders but I haven't seen another that looked like that so I am leaning towards something being applied to the surface.

The seller says it will be stellar... if it grades...where, on Mars?

 

The reverse looks like the Martian polar ice cap so it just might.

Looks cooked by a chemistry set to me. I have had and have seen proof cents that have been in Capital holders for a long while but never seen this look before. Capital holders are (I believe) delrin inserts and acrylic outer sheets, pretty inert medical grade plastics.
