@Stoxin, first welcome to CCF. Second, other than repeating what others have already stated, I would vigorously recommend not trying to clean this coin. As mentioned above, it most likely is nothing, but just in case, don't try to "improve" it in any way.

Also, weigh the coin and see if it sticks to a magnet.

To CCF , actually the very first thing you should do is holder that Penney , meaning protect it in a 2x2 coin holder or cloth pouch anything so it don't get banged up . As mentioned DO NOT clean the coin in any way .
We must see photos clear and close up of entire coin both sides also the weight in grams is a must . Good luck .

And, a little over 24 hours later, nothing. Halo, I'm no longer on the edge of my seat. I hope he has it, but it pretty improbable.

Probably a hoax considering it was his first and only post and all the media attention about the one that recently sold.

I'm surprised we haven't already been inundated with people claiming to have one yet. There's alway a few such people trickling in, but after a sale of one we usually see a fair sized influx of them.
