Ok yep that is much better thx. For sure something is stuck to the reverse of this cent. Could be an epoxy or solder. I wonder, could you please give us a weight? I'd expect it to be on the heavy side. Also, is there a similar patch of solder on the front?

Looks like glue or similar substance was applied and then another coin was partially pressed into it.

yep, another Lincoln Cent was glued to this one. you can make out the impression of the bust in the glue/epoxy residue. May be possible to loosen it with a few days soaking in acetone.

Nothing on the front or sides. Unfortunately I can't find my scale.

Give the coin a long soak in 100% acetone--it might (might...) remove much or all of the crud (might).

. Looks like some type of adhesive. If it is epoxy, acetone will not remove it. If it were me, I would just spend it and move on.

It appears to be gum, possibly spearmint. What does it taste like?
