wquinn Pillar of the Community United States 2295 Posts	Posted 06/05/2012 12:39 pm It looks like some one took a drill with a wire brush and spun it on the coin. I can see a little gray color from the zinc showing. Report this Post to the Staff

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 06/06/2012 10:56 am My take on these is that they are damaged - I don't spend time wondering how. It could be one of any number of causes, the important thing is the end result. No matter how it was damaged, it's damaged. Report this Post to the Staff

Mr.Daughtrey;Your are correct,this coin was put away at least 12 years ago.I was going through my "old" stuff and the title "spirograph" came to mind,it was the only reason I posted it.
