Looks like the results of a long acid bath.

Nothing valuable, but an interesting find.

I was really into weird experiments with cents as a kid - why, I have absolutely no clue.

Heavily wire brushed using powered rotating steel bristles.

Hmm... and afterwards, when he was done brushing, the coin being heavily wired at this point, he began to realize the severity of defacing a monetary valuable item. Thats when he grabbed a can of gold spray paint to cover up any traces of his crime and then earnestly spent the coin at the nearest gas station as to get rid of the evidence. Unfortunately pennies cant buy anything at all... but they are highly valued as a collectable piece to ... at least a few people I know. Lol

 Kind of or sort of looks like something you shouldn't touch. |
