And it would have to have been a strong clash to involve the devices. Maybe a gouge?


IMHO, I'm leaning towards a gouge or opaque substance (glue?) on the coin? Something seems to be in the "elbow" of the N directly below as well.

Try soaking in acetone to see if it comes off.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Why are you opposed to soaking it in acetone?... pretty much the only form of coin cleaning that is universally accepted as non harmful to coins by virtually all experts.

Yeah, I am not a fan of cleaning coins. It's too risky. Acetone can also make your coins look ugly in a clean way. Not my thing.

Sam coin not a fly fisherman, just worked with copper in my job for 45 years. Bigwho808 pure acetone will not harm coins in any way.

If you are going to experiment on a coin, use junk coins from circulation. That way you don't mess up and turn a $100 coin into face value.
