Just found this morning - Appears to be a fairly major struck through. Lincolns bust is weak across the entire obverse. "IN" is also weak. Most of the other letters are a little mushy.

Reverse has Epluribus Unum mostly missing/weak.

The one thing that is wierd is that there seems to be a minor sheen to this coin. It also has a "grainy" look. I think its a struck through that maybe had some oil or something else on it after it has been in the wild. THANKS!!

Acid or Dryer Coin, looks too porus for a strike through but I could be wrong

I thought it looked odd as well. I would weigh it but I kinda agree with Dollarman...The rim has the same porous marks which lead me to believe it is damage. But I am not 100% certain.

good points. I think it may be more on the side of acid or osme other chemical. Jayman pointing out the spots on the rim I think makes it clear to me. I agree. toss it back.
