coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/04/2017 12:22 pm Looks raised to me, so it might be glue or something on the coin. I order for this to be raised on a coin the die would have to me missing that area on the die. Probably didn't happen that way. So check to see if something is on your coin?

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 09/04/2017 5:10 pm I can't think of a single way this could be a minting error, although the possibility of a lamination makes the most sense. Report this Post to the Staff
USSID18 Pillar of the Community 5464 Posts	Posted 09/09/2017 10:14 am My first thought after seeing the coin was the same as coop's. Give it an acetone bath. It will not hurt the coin. Use a Qtip to lightly wipe the surface. Them post pictures again. Let's see the reverse of the coin as well. Report this Post to the Staff
