Is that thin line a glue string? Maybe the part in the ear was glued in place and the thin line is a glue string that is strung over part of the W.
That little glob on the W might be glue. Acetone may remove the line if it is glue.
Every time I use airplane glue I get little glue strings attached to everything. Just a thought.

Thank You; E&V and I6609 Quote:

What looks to possibly be something - going from the center of the W pointing NW - is actually a tiny stain. The blob on the right part of the W is also definitely metal, not glue, etc. I will, however, soak the penny in acetone anyway. There is a little "earwax" around the RIDB. So, just to be 100% sure.

If you were 182, you'd need a hearing aid, too! =P

I am sorry but the thing in his ear looks out of place to me. If you magnify just the head the thing in the ear looks a different color than the rest of his head. To me anyway. May be I need more coffee.  |

the ear looks a different color than the rest of his head Steve, it's the lighting. Look at different areas of the head and you will find they match the different areas of the ear. It depends on the contour of the RIDB and how the light hits it, the same way with the rest of the head. Hope that helps. -makecents-
