Dearborn Moderator United States 95936 Posts	Posted 08/22/2021 11:28 pm It does have an odd tint to it, doesn't quite match the color of the coin itself. I'll have to agree with the others that have said it is some kind of residue or glue Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Spence Moderator United States 34409 Posts	Posted 08/23/2021 07:20 am I agree-some sort of foreign substance that found its way onto this cent after it left the mint. Added: also, it is a minor thing, but the side of the cent with the Lincoln Memorial is the reverse.
