Since it can not press down with a tooth pick or what he used, could it not be zinc dust? I think I remember reading that time before

Tip of the day:
Back to the lighting issue. Does a stain reflect light? On this one you can see the same light glare spot on that area that you can see on the other raised devices. So it is raised.

Trying to deduce what something / anything is on a cent is impossible based on photos taken straight-on with plastic-lense microscopes and their on-board lighting since they always come out looking two-dimensional.. It is an exercise in frustation..

Using external lighting can get close, as long as (nearly all) glare is eliminated..

For the folks here to help ID "things," a coin needs to look as close to natural as can be gotten given the equipment being used.. They can't ID a 3-D error when the pix look 2-D..

I've seen tons of these black spots on Lincoln Cents. It's not raised. It's flat on the surfaces.

I will take the side giving Bate the information at comfort level. LOL. It is up to you now, Bate. Choose which side you are on. You have a nice coin. It looks like a hyphenated LIB-ERTY to me. Whew! Thanks to the braniacs of the coin community.

Right. We all have brains. So, we are all brainiacs (thanks for the correct spelling Errers and Varietys). We like coins. So, we are all coiniacs. LOL.

Is it possible there was a foreign object on the planchet when it was plated or maybe just a little bubble and because it's so small it's not easily punctured. Think about a paint job that blisters. A big blister can be easier to pop than one that is as small as that one.

Sosicoin you're welcome. You're right. Since we collect coins, we're coiniacs.
