Was looking at this ebay auction...looked like a pretty nice coin until I saw the reverse scans. Does that green spotting look like PVC to any of you experts out there ???

    I have salvaged a lot of coins with PVC, so I have quite a bit of experience with coins contaminated with it. This is not the pattern PVC takes, so I do not believe it is PVC. Looks to me like his color is off a bit, and they look more like milk spots to me.
