It's environmental damage with crud and corrosion on the surfaces. Drop it in mineral oil for a few days (or weeks) and then pick the crud off with a rose thorn or something similar and you will see it detach, but the underlying surface damage will be revealed.
In honor of the memory of Cpl. Michael E. Thompson
Corroded, unfortunately. @TomB's advice is good, but think of it as an automotive tune-up for a rust bucket.

Yep... sure looks like post mint crud.....Let us know the results of soaking it.... We have the 'before' pictures...Cheers, RickO
Given the overall condition of G, try soaking it in H2O2 for a day or two. Live a little. Understanding crud is a good thing. Peace Roy
