Spence Moderator United States 18302 Posts	Posted 11/28/2020 9:04 pm @tippy, can you please confirm that this arc is actually a depression in the surface of the coin as opposed to surface staining? Thx.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 47862 Posts	Posted 11/28/2020 9:10 pm Also this could be damage to the coin. Another cent could have been pressed onto the surface of this coin, using a vice? 1. Is the coin bent at all? 2. Are the rims flatten at the two ends of the affected rims? 3. Is there any evidence of a push outwards on the reverse opposite this area? Here is an overlay to see what opposite area could be affected by a push out on the reverse: Richard S. Cooper Some have asked about my images I use and I'm glad to say, you can now you can see the DVD in sections on youtube: 1. Intro, older coins, toned coins 2. Doubled dies 3. Die events, One of a kind errors 4. So called errors, Coin information 5.

John1 Bedrock of the Community United States 37221 Posts	Posted 11/29/2020 04:55 am You should never clean coins unless you really know what you are doing, and then it is call conservation not cleaning.
