jhserembus New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 12/19/2007 12:27 pm Hello, I'm new to this forum. So, I hope I am doing this correctly. I picked up a cent in change and I am not sure what kind of error is on the obverse. The reverse is normal. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Jorgy Valued Member United States 145 Posts	Posted 12/19/2007 12:38 pm Looks like glue to me. If you stick two coins together with a drop of clear glue and then pull them apart it leave an image of the other coin in the glue on the opposite coin. The glue if thin looks a lot like metal on the coin. I found a coin once that had glue on it and I thought it was an extra image in the coin. Someone on a coin forum told me to try acetone and it came right off. Could have sworn it was extra metal. Try a little acetone on it and see if it comes off. Report this Post to the Staff
