Sap Moderator Australia 16806 Posts	Posted 06/26/2021 03:35 am It might have happened inside the mint, but it almost certainly happened outside. Either way, it's not considered a mint error, or anything other than a "damaged coin". Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34393 Posts	Posted 06/26/2021 06:09 am @paul, that is definitely a surface stain, perhaps from soda if this coin sat in car's cupholder for a period of time. It is not a mint error.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19111 Posts	Posted 06/26/2021 07:14 am Post strike damage. The coin did not leave the striking chamber with this stain. Any chance we can see a photo of the reverse? Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 06/26/2021 11:06 am Environmental staining, most likely caused by a reactive liquid. Spend it and move on. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/26/2021 12:27 pm Probably a coin tossed into a cup holder in the car and stained with contents spilled onto the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
