lawest Pillar of the Community United States 1998 Posts	Posted 03/01/2015 4:36 pm When I found the coin pictured I assumed it was damaged after minting but then I found four more in the roll with identical markings. Any idea what caused this? Also, every coin in the roll has a clear-whitish substance on it, could this be grease or something? I was reluctant to clean it off, any recommendations?

(Don't press down hard and scratch the coin. Kind of a whisking of the power off. It this does not work, the try Racksters method. But a rule I usually follow is not to dip BU coins. I know a lot do, It is just a thing that I don't do. There are lots of BU rolls out there to snag. Why waste the time on common coin to find? Report this Post to the Staff

I wanted to practice on these because the DDRs I found have the same substance on them and I wanted to remove it before I put them in 2X2s Report this Post to the Staff
