Hello, I have this 2014 Lincoln Shield cent that looks like it has swirls on the reverse. My first thought was it was fingerprints. I took a lens cleaning cloth (whether that was a good thing or not) and wiped it down. The swirls will not come off so I don't think it is fingerprints. What do you think it is?
As always I thank you for your help.
David

It does look like finger prints to me and they will not come off without damaging the coin. It also looks like a worn die issue going on around the rim.
