fmsatina New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 12/07/2021 7:29 pm I am trying to determine if my Eisenhower Coin is an error coin. It has two red markings at the 3 & 9 o'clock positions. At first glance they appear to be red magic marker or nail polish. After more inspection these markings are not on the surface of the coin and can not be scratched with your fingernail. Also, they both end on the rim of the coin stamping. Any opinion would be appreciated. Thank You Edited by fmsatina 12/07/2021 7:34 pm Report this Post to the Staff

It would be a good idea to post the full images of both sides of the coin to best help you determine what you have. I don't know of any minting procedure that would leave hard red somethings on a coin like that, so I vote this was done after minting. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95740 Posts	Posted 12/07/2021 9:27 pm I think that an acetone bath is a great first step in trying to figure out what this is. Collecting since 1972.
