coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/12/2021 12:55 pm It maybe an epoxy glue on the coin. One for the Wheat cent pile. Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19173 Posts	Posted 11/12/2021 2:11 pm To have even more fun, try soaking the coin in pure acetone--perhaps overnight. That might remove the gunk. Acentone works on many things, but not all. Report this Post to the Staff
