DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9874 Posts	Posted 06/19/2020 1:57 pm Looks like it took a severe beating, was coated in glue or something, followed by an unsuccessful attempt to remove the glue. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff

SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10464 Posts	Posted 06/21/2020 11:39 am I agree, it looks like glue or tape residue. Try a Q-tip soaked in acetone on that. The coin is pure nickel, you won't hurt it.

TheDeductible Pillar of the Community Canada 851 Posts	Posted 06/23/2020 1:34 pm Looks like someone may have tried to seal the coin in a protective coating, realized it wasn't working out, and tried to clean all the clear stuff off before getting fed up and tossing it in the change basket.
