chadcoins Pillar of the Community Canada 712 Posts	Posted 03/27/2023 5:16 pm Going through my USA Penny Stash up here in Canada and this 1948s just stood out at me. Not going to get in detail but I took some good pictures for you to view. There is some thing special with this coin! The copper area is raised to the rest of the strike. I need your expertness on this one. Report this Post to the Staff

lcutler Pillar of the Community United States 1254 Posts	Posted 03/27/2023 5:40 pm It appears to be just glue or something like that. That is why the area underneath isn't toned, the glue kept the air from the surface of the coin. Report this Post to the Staff

chadcoins Pillar of the Community Canada 712 Posts	Posted 03/27/2023 5:46 pm Maybe it is glue or some thing. Let me check it out and see if I can chip a piece off. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 78351 Posts	Posted 03/27/2023 6:00 pm Agree, looks like some sort of foreign substance. Report this Post to the Staff
chadcoins Pillar of the Community Canada 712 Posts	Posted 03/27/2023 6:03 pm I soaked it for 5 minutes in Acetone and the [glue] is all gone. Couple of picks of the cleaned coin. Kinda cool looking now. Thanks for your help!! Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 27209 Posts	Posted 03/27/2023 9:04 pm Thx for following up with those "after" pics. The glue has protected the copper from oxidizing.

Dearborn Bedrock of the Community United States 18383 Posts	Posted 03/28/2023 1:43 pm Bummer I missed this topic from the beginning. I love the way the glue 'preserved' the center of the coin while the outer area toned out so heavily. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
