Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74455 Posts	Posted 03/11/2018 10:34 pm Looks like it was over polished do to a Die Clash event or whatever the reason they polished the die. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34419 Posts	Posted 03/11/2018 11:13 pm @tparis, first welcome to CCF. Second, can you please be a little more specific about your area of concern? With this one picture, it looks a little like parts of the date and LIBERTY might be weak, but it is hard to tell whether that is just due to the lighting. Also, on Lincoln's cheek there appears to be a slightly discolored region. Again, that might be lighting (or perhaps differential toning if this coin was glued to something at one point).

The face is what I am looking at, it is zinc I guess showing through or a silver spot. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74455 Posts	Posted 03/12/2018 12:39 am I'm wondering if the coin got sun faded from being in the light for a long time? Would a Proof coin fade like this if it was in the lights for too long? Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
