Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5774 Posts	Posted 01/07/2021 8:30 pm That's looking like an acid dipped coin. What is the weight in grams? Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff

Then again, flash exposure to an extreme temperature may produce similar looking results--emphasis on flash verses prolonged exposure. Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 01/08/2021 03:37 am A classic example of a cent that has taken a bath in an acid, much more pronounced on the reverse. PMD. Report this Post to the Staff
