Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5785 Posts	Posted 09/19/2019 07:25 am My experience has been that this is a sign of some type of adhesive placed on the surface of the coin. A drop can produce a perfect circle or semi-circle. this would give you a raised edge and also protect the area underneath from oxidizing (turning brown) like the rest of the coin has. Try soaking in acetone to remove the adhesive. ps. Just for grins and yucks, what is the weight of your coin? Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Edited by Petespockets55 09/19/2019 07:27 am Report this Post to the Staff
