Interesting, but I'll have to leave it to the error people for an analysis.

Looks like serious lamination issue.. I think the question is was it caused by someone adding a chemical to cause it or if this monster came out of the mint looking that way.. I'm guessing a chemical was used.. I have seen a couple of coins very similar to this and mine look like something has eaten away areas of the outer coin layer..

Looks like glue to me. Bingo We have a winner. It's the remnants of glue or some other type of adhesive. Not an error |

I'm leaning towards glue or something on the surface. Cookie, acetone will not remove a lamination that isn't already detached. Acetone does not react with metal, so it's safe for use on coins.

The coin is affected by surface contamination, not a lamination.

Forgot about getting back to this thread ....
As others posted .... it also looks like a glue type substance to me.
When I suggested a acetone soak, I am thinking most or all that substance
will come off.
As mentioned lamination will not come off with acetone .... but I do not
think it is lamination.

The glue is on the surface of the coin you can see it is higher than the fields. A lamination if if came off would show a low spot on the coin.

I don't think acetone removes all types of adhesives like epoxy for example. It is not a lamanation though. John1 |
