Spence Moderator United States 34440 Posts	Posted 05/29/2021 8:05 pm @becky, that looks like surface staining, perhaps from another coin resting on top of this one.

Spence Moderator United States 34440 Posts	Posted 05/29/2021 8:42 pm Ok yep--I see that too. This sort of surface staining seems to occur when coins are stacked on one another in an aqueous environment (think fountains and other water features). However, I'm far from infallible so let's see what others think.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/30/2021 12:25 am If it were Wrapping Machine Damage or vending machine damage, the plating would have been scrapped off. Thus my conclusion of stain. Report this Post to the Staff
