Can anyone explain whats going on with coin? I picked up this ugly looking thing a few days ago, I can tell there is some sort of lamination error maybe from the mint maybe post mint? either it was a $1 with shipping and it looked ugly. The color and bubbling looks like some sort cleaning maybe/ maybe not? My less educated guess is a lamination error coin that someone tried to clean? Would this be a accurate guess?
