LincolnGuy Pillar of the Community 917 Posts	Posted 05/17/2014 01:41 am Acid was the first that came to mind. Looks like it sat in it for a while. Even if it was on the wrong planchet that wouldn't give it a reeded edge. Edited by LincolnGuy 05/17/2014 01:43 am Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/17/2014 09:23 am Looks like acid was put on the surface of the coin and eaten into the surface. Normal cent planchet. The question if it were a wrong planchet because you saw what looked like reeding is incorrect. The reeding is made by a collar on dimes, quarters, halves and on the gold dollars the motto and date are made by the collar. Just a damaged coin. Report this Post to the Staff
