Chawkdan Valued Member United States 54 Posts	Posted 01/11/2023 5:30 pm Hi all I found this 1989 penny with an odd coating that created what looks like pimples on it has this been altered? Beautiful coin but not sure if this is all mint ? Or been altered in some way ? It does weigh 2.5 g Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 51758 Posts	Posted 01/11/2023 6:01 pm The finish looks like trapped zinc dust and the rim looks like early Ridge Ring. Also, please use a memory card in your scope.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 12994 Posts	Posted 01/11/2023 6:13 pm Yes, trapped zinc dust. Also, looks like there's an emergent Ridge Ring on the obverse--an indication of Die Deterioration. Report this Post to the Staff

Danjor Valued Member United States 92 Posts	Posted 01/11/2023 8:14 pm Just wondering - Would the finish be due to cleaning? Report this Post to the Staff
