rogbarn New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 02/06/2019 9:23 pm any ideas about what happened here? I found this in my father's collection and I don't know anything its history. It looks like a blob of metal got stuck on top of the coin. It has the same shiny color as the rest of the coin. Report this Post to the Staff

rogbarn New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 02/06/2019 9:52 pm Thanks for the prompt reply. This makes sense as a few of the other coins had been made into jewelry at some time in the past. It's still a nice shiny coin for its age. Report this Post to the Staff
