Blast White Moose
Blast white MOOSE?
Is this some kind of slang term that I've never heard?

MOOSE! Is used by Pepperdoodles quite frequently in his ebay listings. I think it means the coin has antler marks on it.

Looks like a moose rutted on his coin's fields.
It looks rather baggy and I'm surprised PCGS gave it a 61.

I noticed that the word "burnt" as in burnt luster wasn't in the slang list. I saw it used by what i thought was an experienced numismatist
but apparently he's just a poser as i had never heard that word used in that way either.

The coin in question is not a moose, is probably over graded
or at best in at the lowest level of the grade. Its blasted alright, lookes like a couple layers of silver
have been mined from the surface of the coin. I think its an ugly coin and one destined for an
ignominous end. The term moose is reserved for a coin that is superb for the grade with high eye appeal
few marks, good luster and reasonably good strike. Another meaning for a blast white moose ,would be
an Albino animal, which has been blasted by dynamite. A rather painful(for the moose), messy and
altogether unnecessary act of malevolence.

Camelot
