This isn't my coin and I have no intention of bidding on it, I really wouldn't want it, but I happened to see this as I was looking at ebay this morning. I am curious as to what might have caused this damage to a better date Morgan ...... any opinions?

Right, coated with some foreign substance that is now wearing off.

Probably lead paint...will probably come off with some acetone.


Not sure if brake cleaner will harm a coin or not, but that takes paint off better then you'd imagine.
