singing New Member United States 37 Posts	Posted 09/05/2021 3:15 pm The new microscope is in the mail and a new camera too :) Found this last night- It is discolored although still interesting. The obverse and reverse have multi-doubling. What is this discoloration? Should I try to clean with acetone? Thanks. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 09/05/2021 6:34 pm I don't know what it's from But I have over 2 rolls of 95s that came out of obw roles. I just put it down as bad plating. They go from just a little spot, to almost the whole surface of both sides. Report this Post to the Staff

BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19987 Posts	Posted 09/05/2021 10:23 pm Doesn't appear to be a hub doubled die to me. Looks like heat damage to the center of the coin, that's not a normal toning pattern. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
singing New Member United States 37 Posts	Posted 09/06/2021 01:26 am Gonna be exciting to get this 1995 under the microscope :) The reverse photo shows indenting and what looks like maybe loss of copper plate- this seems to be the case throughout on the obverse and reverse in varying degrees. The obverse photo shows doubling on numbers 9 and 5. Haven't been able to get a good enough look to determine if there is more doubling. Will add more photos asap. Thanks all for the discussion.

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 09/06/2021 04:39 am 100% pure acetone will not hurt it. The gray around the numbers and letters is split copper plating, said to be caused by a type of Machine Doubling. No DDO or DDR. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

Oldfordman Pillar of the Community United States 2869 Posts	Posted 09/06/2021 09:11 am Lighter it seems to be. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 09/06/2021 09:27 am Just a note: I am on the fence about it being from a lighter or a plating issue. I keep the nicer ones that I find...just in case John1 Report this Post to the Staff
