    I've seen a similar look on a number of B-halves, though this contrast is more extreme.
    I don't know if there is anything wrong with it; perhaps surprising is that I'm more concerned about the fields on
    this coin.....almost looks like it was lacquered or something, and then circulated afterward for a while.

    Hello,

    If you are looking to purchase that particular date I would wait for another coin to come alongimage
    The reverse looks suspect.
    There is a stunning PCGS-40 on Ebay that is stunning (Not my coin)
