I have to disagree with you, there is no smudges from any type of glue being used.. If something was glued to the top, how can the coin have a perfect print on it that matches the left side? Also the long crack around the rim would indicate that it fits perfectly onto the rim?

Looks like glue residue to me.

Drop it in boiling water, it should all dissolve, if not, soak it in Acetone. it is a dried up foreign substance on this coin, whatever it maybe, it did not come out of mint that way! BTW  to Community. |

@ Chase007
So would the top separate from the main coin in boiling water?

I also believe that there is something on the coin like glue or epoxy. Let's see what acetone does.  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

Yep, acetone will take it off. Boiling water will not remove some glues.

I guess a simpler solution would be, see if the raised devices, are raised on that area of the coin. If they are not raised, then they are covered over with something clear. That would be the first test on these.
