coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/28/2019 04:04 am I agree with fire damage. The bubbles were flattened. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34409 Posts	Posted 09/28/2019 07:25 am Ok yes that new one is a great pic--well done. When we this sort of bubbling/warping on a clad coin, we ascribe it to excessive heat, but to be honest we can't know for sure what caused this damage after the coin left the mint.
