Odul McBaller New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 07/31/2017 12:30 pm I found this while coin roll hunting and cant seem to find to much information on it. The closest pictures I've seen seem to point to being Struck Through Grease but this is covers nearly the whole coin on both sides. I'm still new to coin collection and figured this was worth digging a bit more in to so whats everyone's take on this. Think its worth anything? Report this Post to the Staff

Odul McBaller New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 07/31/2017 12:40 pm Thanks John for letting me know I thought that heat or acid would cause discoloration so I had to ask because of it still maintaining its color. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/31/2017 1:40 pm It is from heat. If it were acid, the rims would be reduced/missing from the coin. The weight of this coin will be normal. Just an altered coin that reduces it value down to copper content. Report this Post to the Staff
