mixyslicks Valued Member United States 66 Posts	Posted 02/25/2015 4:24 pm It's not glue or gunk it's metal and the number 20 that you See is raised and in the right sequence. I guess I'll get out the microscope take couple pictures that way. Report this Post to the Staff
CaptainFwiffo Pillar of the Community United States 4132 Posts	Posted 02/25/2015 4:33 pm I don't see a number 20, but the date (2000) is partially obscured by the blob. The blob is clearly a contaminant of some kind that got stuck to the coin after minting; it's produced a stain in a circle around it. It is not an error. It's possibly solder or something.
