oddguy Pillar of the Community United States 4135 Posts	Posted 10/22/2022 10:55 pm I could be wrong as well, I really do not know what it is but try to soak it in acetone over night, it will not hurt the coin at all. Report this Post to the Staff
RW1010 Pillar of the Community United States 1207 Posts	Posted 10/23/2022 12:30 am Thanks oddguy. I haven't tried acetone before so I need to do some practicing first. The coin has some grit on it but you can see the dropped letter just fine. Third picture shows it's incuse on the coin. Acetone would probably make that area better to see but not needed to see the error Forth picture not the third Edited by RW1010 10/23/2022 12:40 am Report this Post to the Staff
