coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/12/2018 5:39 pm Thanks for the image. It looks like someone pour some copper soldier pm the coin. The weigh should tell you that is is heavier than normal. (You probably could tell the difference just holding two coins. one normal, and this one) Report this Post to the Staff
Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 05/12/2018 5:39 pm My first thought was a possible coin or coins used in a fuse box. Might check weight to confirm or eliminate foreign object matter. I believe an added foreign material would add weight. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/12/2018 8:56 pm Seems like it would be a lot heavier than that? Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/12/2018 9:11 pm To me it looks like a drip of something onto the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 05/12/2018 10:29 pm While the reverse is obviously distorted. My attention is also drawn too the obverse. I think I see a circular indent to the lower bust shoulder. Close to where a contact point could be in some older fuse boxes. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 05/13/2018 12:54 am As a former electrician, yep, HALO1st nailed it. The reverse side was against the hot post. Too much current was being drawn and the copper would have melted and "oozed" in that manner...wonder if the house fuse panel it came out of was still standing? Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 189299 Posts	Posted 05/14/2018 2:12 pm I can see it. We moved into a 1920's era house back in 1981. The fuse box was filled with cents. Not a single intact fuse in the whole thing.
