Villasenor1979 New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 01/03/2024 1:59 pm I found this nickel and noticed a honey comb design on the back of it. Anyone seen anything like this. Wray could it be and is there value in it. Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6657 Posts	Posted 01/03/2024 3:25 pm Maybe something dried on it slowly and left a pattern of residue. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34472 Posts	Posted 01/03/2024 5:18 pm Fun to look at so keep it if you like, but there is no numismatic premium for surface residue/staining like this.

Villasenor1979 New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 01/04/2024 4:05 pm That's what I was thinking, it was some kind of stain. I tried cleaning it with water mixed with a little baking soda and a soft toothbrush but It didn't do anything to it. On the front you can barely see it. Not enough for me too get a good picture.
