This salvaged Cob was likely covered in corrosion that prompted someone to aggressively clean it, as the coin now exhibits linear abrasions across its surfaces. Nonetheless, the piece retains a clear date and mintmark. The reverse cross is mostly intact as well, and the coin possesses certain eye appeal despite its shortcomings.
