Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74876 Posts	Posted 10/13/2024 9:01 pm Just a plating issue. Very common. No premium. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 10/13/2024 9:04 pm Have to agree, just a spender. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34430 Posts	Posted 10/13/2024 9:29 pm @dou, in my opinion, this could be either plating blisters or else trapped zinc dust. Either way, it doesn't add a numismatic premium to this coin.

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 10/14/2024 04:28 am Dough101, Where are you getting that info from? Your coin is suffering from a plating issue. Trapped debris like zinc dust. I see no zinc rot. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
