Skippy72 Valued Member United States 447 Posts	Posted 02/13/2019 02:42 am * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. Previously posted in US Modern Coin Grading. * Good evening everyone. I have quite a few of these coins in various dates and mint marks, all of which are similar to this coin, 1941. I believe the error in question would be a type 2 clash? Double or counter clash? The images on these coins all vary. And actually, I thought this coin had a stain on it for the longest time until I saw a post where a similar coin was in question and "Coop" sent him in the right direction. Here are a few images. Thanks to all who share their opinion/input... Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/24/2019 2:55 pm On the Liberty area area, that is a fingerprint. Now how can a fingerprint stay on a coin? Possible question on some new ones minds. The fingerprints can have salt on them and in time, show up to stay on a coin as it alters the BU look on the coin. These are permanent on the coin. When it does all go away is when the mint glow is missing off the coin. So handle the coins by the edges only or wear gloves so that you don't leave your fingerprints behind on a BU coin.
