Of course it's PMD.. Sorry I only inferred so under re-wrapping for (re)distribution.. But that doesn't tell us what it actually is or how it happened..
Looks like an epoxy type glue. Not the normal Elmer's glue issue. But altered for sure. I remember as kids my brother and I used to take a piece of aluminum foil, press it down on a coin and make a mold and fill it with Elmer's glue to make a glue cast cent. Those were the fun days. Back making molds, now were just growing old. LOL Like these guys. (if they have not died yet?)
Quote: Acetone or a some other solvent would likely remove this but is it worth the cost in time and materials to do it?
Well, I have acetone.. So no expense there.. And I have coins soaking in various oils going on a year now, so I guess I at least think I have the time..
With this one I'm not looking to remove it.. I'd rather it'd been a mint thing, but this has its own uniqueness..
Their class line. (driving down a one way street the wrong way chasing someone) "Didn't you see the arrow?. I didn't even see the Indians." (Now considered a slur) It wasn't funny, it was just how silly the show was.
Quote: However it happened, it is very cool looking.
Thanks.. I think it's cool looking too..
Quote: Most likely some glue stuck on the surface. PMD.
Yup -- pretty much determined going in.. I'm after the how though.. I've presented my best guess up top; hoping someone comes along who actually knows..
