Bogiesmokes Valued Member United States 197 Posts	Posted 09/19/2021 7:31 pm Hi all At first, I thought that this coin had gunk or something similar on it, but after taking a closer look, especially at the reverse, I noticed a slight difference in thickness between the two different colored areas and that the letters don't seem to be affected by it. Any thoughts would be much appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 96935 Posts	Posted 09/19/2021 10:06 pm Not sure what's going on with the obverse other than the broken post on the mint mark. but the reverse looks like a stain of some sort.

Bogiesmokes Valued Member United States 197 Posts	Posted 09/19/2021 10:49 pm I thought it was a stain at first, but I'm no longer sure of that since the area with the stain looking tone/color is lower/not as raised as the normal looking area, I'm thinking something else. And on top of that, it's not affecting the letters would this have had to happen before being struck or am I wrong...I don't know myself, will try to post a more angled pic of the reverse. Thanks!
