    further Proof that color isn't always the cat's meow, even when wildly electric. although it has a certain appeal i'd be curious to know what it looked like about 10 years before the color progression stopped.

    All the spots are what I find unattractive.

    In spite of the colors, I'd say it has negative eye appeal.

    This is a brilliant proof copper coin so I would imagine that the appearance would change dramatically with respect to the angle of lighting. Of course, if it is carbon flecked then those fleks won't disappear.

    I thought PCGS doesn't grade problem coins?

    I've never seen that color induced on copper by bleach. Would you do one or find another image and post it?

    Ugly and damaged in my opinion.

    I like it and can't understand all the negative comments.
    Many happy BST transactions

    Those darks spots kill the coin for me; they make it look like crap. I think the colors only make it worse.
