Idacostya Valued Member United States 129 Posts	Posted 05/10/2017 11:45 pm I ran across this Lincoln Cent the other day and I am not real sure what is going on here. I did a quick search of lamination but I am not seeing anything like this. Have you seen something similar? Is this a Lamination error? Report this Post to the Staff

That would explain the color difference, position and shape. Maybe you can try pure acetone to remove anything remaining.

It can be found at hardware stores also. I don't think it will increase any value or anything but, at least maybe you can get any remaining gunk off. The colors will still be what they are. Consider it an acetone experiment. That's a good one to practice on.
