I suppose there is no charge for scratches? After all, it is in “GOOD CONDITION”

Exactly.
If it was "faded" the backside would still be green. It looks like an attempt to "force" patina/fade it (via chemical and/or mechanical means) that went horribly wrong, lol. I am guessing it was already beat up/scratched so it was less of a risk to experiment on. Still, it would have been worth a lot more by just leaving it alone. SMH... |
